What is your final decision? That ought to be your number one question before closing on a design. What is my decision? Why did I choose this?

 Though tedious may be the craziest part of getting ready for the project you and your team will need to go through this. Research the graphics, the media and the overall content knowing where to put what and why. This will also determine the competency and the direction your project will flow to. Now here are a few questions to take into consideration in closing the curtains on your design:

 

  • What is the design or theme?
  • Is the design easily understood?
  • Is the design suitable for the intended purpose?
  • Are the images supporting the theme or purpose?
  • What is the relevance of the content to the design?
  • How is your design compares to that of the competitor?
  • Are you happy with the design? 

 

What Is The Design or Theme?

This, in my opinion, should be the first question for any creative for a project as this will help you determine if this theme/design is suitable for your business as the design then becomes the face of your business.

In making a decision on this worthiness will clear multiple paths as in selecting a theme and finalizing the design these must be remembered; your catered demographic and for the designer, you think of the client, (it is best to narrow things down so as not to overwhelm yourself as a designer and your client). 

 

Is The Design easily understood?

  Usually, all graphic personnel design to grab the attention of onlookers which then push clients to ask for a redo(make it simple). As the designer, it is best to understand your client before taking the valuable time to design and redo. You are to understand so much so you can be the storyteller to the client’s best design. It helps if you also come to the table with templates or clients can do this as well. 

NB: Remember to limit these so as not to be overwhelmed.

 

Is The Design Suitable For The Intended Purpose?

This question is son vital and can never be asked too many times in the conversation between the designer and client. It is okay to have a well-designed project but in all that it must serve the intended purpose or this is a loss of time and money. Your design should not only match the functionality of the website but the meaning of your business and easy to use by users/customers.

 

Are the images supporting the theme or purpose?

The images that age used in a project should at all times complement the project’s design and theme, and this should always be at the forefront of the designers’ minds. The final design should be able to stand with its layout.

Using inapplicable/unconnected /irrelevant images in design will totally annihilate the message behind your theme. This is however avoidable by using images that will tell the story the client and the business wish to have told their audience. 

 

What is the relevance of the content to the design?

In this, your content is the overall information on your design. Now, this can be stressed enough all this should be relevant to the story being told. 

Typography is a great deal in this as the font style the words used, the highlights, and all others that tell the tone in which you are bringing across the information. Best believe the font size and words used do affect the theme and its overall story you are telling in that design. 

Before closing on your final design remember all elements play an important part in the story and your story needs to flow in sequential order. In doing this evaluation before the closing deal and rolling out you will be able to tell the importance and see if release that project is a final or even make some necessary changes.

How Is Your Design Compares To That Of The Competition?

Let’s be honest, one of the main reasons if not the only reason to have graphical design is to be in the market place or be the very best when we get there.  Businesses usually do their graphic to indulge their part-takers of the market place hence, you need to know what is trending in design to be apart of the competition. 

Making sure you are able to be apart of the intended market place your designs are to be simple easy to use and eye-catching to the potential user. Your intentions are to be recognizable and also able to stand out. 

 

Are You Happy With The Design?

Finally, as the design, your question should be, is my client happy? Have I told the story correctly? Will the audience love it?

As the client, are you happy?

Ensure all revisions are done so as not to have any regrets on either side. In asking these questions ensure that the answers are honest so as to have an effective delivery and launch.
