Typical Project Phases
At DESIGNSHN, we execute creative projects using a highly structured five-phase workflow to guarantee technical precision and complete alignment with client expectations:
- Phase 1: Research & Strategy: We analyze competitors, define audience habits, and align on project goals and brand positioning.
- Phase 2: Concept Layouts: We develop core geometry, typography hierarchies, and material boards for client review.
- Phase 3: Detail Refinement: We adjust grid spacing, standardize color palettes across RGB/CMYK, and test prototype transitions.
- Phase 4: Fabrication & Code: We write custom clean code for websites and coordinate print plates with local workshops.
- Phase 5: Quality Audit & Delivery: We perform speed audits for digital flagships and physical inspection of space lighting and acoustics.
Fee Framework & Deliverables
Every proposal we deliver is custom-quoted based on project scope, complexity, and specific material requirements. We structure fees under clean deliverables with no hidden charges:
- Brand System Deliverables: High-resolution vector files, typefaces, standard color sheets, and a complete PDF Brand Guidelines manual.
- Digital Deliverables: Minified custom code packages (HTML/CSS/JS), content files, form configurations, and 12 months of technical compatibility support.
- Spatial Deliverables: 2D circulation path grids, furniture layout templates, material specifications sheets, and acoustic felts placement plans.
Intellectual Property & Licensing
Upon final payment settlement, ownership of the customized visual designs, brand manuals, and website code is transferred fully to the client. DESIGNSHN retains the right to display the case study for portfolio purposes, showing the layout parameters and results in our digital galleries.
