The Design Process

Designing is a process that straddles the realm of art as well as marketing. The designing, whether of logos, displays, banners, leaflets, brochures or any other promotional material has to be of the sort that will be accepted and remembered by the customers along with being artistically tasteful?

Usually a five step process is followed while preparing a design for a product or service. These steps consist of –

1. An initial meeting between the client and the designers to know the exact requirements.
2. Submission of an estimate to the client based on his demands.
3. Once approved, gathering of information for the production of the design and the actual designing.
4. Submission of the first draft to the client for them to sleep over it and suggest any changes or alterations.
5. Production of the final draft of the design based on the feedback received by the client.
