Design briefs
Starting points A situation, problem or need may
lead to the decision to create a design. Design
can be stimulated from a variety of starting
points, for example market-based demands (real
world influence/s) client-based demands
(responding to a problem, need, request, or
identified opportunity) personal expression
(focusing on ones own feelings, interests or
personal necessity). It is important to explore
and define the parameters of the problem,
situation or need. A design brief is used for
this purpose.
9
Design process
Design briefs
What is a design brief? A design brief
documents an outline of a situation, problem,
need or opportunity specifications that apply
to the problem (including constraints and
considerations). A design brief provides a
structured way to develop and apply knowledge and
skills to solve problems. Design briefs can vary
in the amount of information they provide and in
the way that information is presented. Both of
these factors are usually determined by the scope
of the project.
10
Design process
Design briefs
How should a design brief be structured? A design
brief should be structured logically. It must
clearly define what is required, and contain
information the designer needs to know. This
includes what kind of product/object, place,
event, system, visual or sound communication
needs to be designed who will use it why it
is needed or wanted when and where it will be
used how it will be used what constraints are
placed on the design (for example, cultural,
safety, age or ability of user and the
possible effect on society and the environment
when it needs to be finished and available for
use.

Design process
Investigating
Before research and investigation is undertaken,
it is important that the nature of the design
problem contained in the brief is clearly
understood. Identify what information, knowledge
and experience is required to complete the
design process. Consider what currently
exists what is required what is possible.
13
Design process
Investigating
Identify areas for investigation or
research. Investigating should broaden the
knowledge of the designer and influence how the
product or outcome will be developed.

Design process
Designing
Designing is the process by which ideas are
generated and documented. When creating and
developing ideas you draw on experience
research intuition imagination.
16
Design process
Designing
Creating and developing ideas. Select relevant
and useful ideas and elements. Generate
solutions. Reflect on alternatives, strengths
and weaknesses. Refocus on whether the solution
satisfies the problem. Test alternatives.
Make informed decisions. Develop and refine
ideas and options. Integrate elements/parts
into a whole. Plan for producing.

Design process
Designing
There are many ways designers can visually
represent ideas, for example drawings or
sketches storyboards prototypes or models
Computer-aided design (CAD). Developing ideas in
visual form before completing a design has many
practical benefits that can help the designer,
client, or others who may be involved in the
production, to visualise the design highlight
any design issues that will need to be resolved
in the final design provide a model to guide
the production of the final design.
19
Design process
Designing
The way a designer chooses to create and develop
ideas is often informed by the medium of the
finished work. For example, storyboards are often
used to represent ideas for a video or film and
models or prototypes are often used to represent
ideas for a three-dimensional design such as a
building.
20
Design process
Designing
Drawing / Sketching A drawing or sketch is a
two-dimensional image which describes the visual
appearance and/or construction techniques of a
proposed design. Depending on the nature of the
design, drawings and sketches for designs can be
detailed and technical (architectural drawings)
or broadly descriptive and free-hand (fashion
design drawings or sketchbook drawings for a
visual communication). Drawings and sketches made
as part of the design process are often annotated
to provide information required to complete the
design.

Storyboards Storyboards show a sequence of
annotated visual images of the narrative or steps
to be used. Storyboards are used extensively in
creating video, film and advertisements.

Designing
Models and prototypes After the most appropriate
or best design is selected, a model or prototype
of that design may be produced. A model or
prototype is a three-dimensional image or form
created to show the appearance of a proposed
product. A model or prototype is often
significantly smaller in scale that the proposed
design made from less durable material than
the final design (for example, a balsa wood
model of a building or a calico toile for a
garment).

Designing
Selecting the best option Selecting the preferred
option involves making judgements about the
design that best meets the requirements of the
design brief. Through filtering and funnelling,
parts of a design my be selected, modified,
recombined and refined until the most appropriate
design evolves and emerges. Planning for
producing the preferred option can then commence.

Methods of planning for producing FlowchartA
flowchart is a pictorial way to represent the
stages of production in a symbolic way. It shows
the flow of work and where checks need to be made
and problems fixed. TimelineA timeline is used
to plan the use of time required for each stage
of production. Sequence tableA table that
clearly defines in a logical sequence the tasks
to be completed and the required resources and
skills.

Design process
Producing
Producing involves implementing or making the
design. It will be necessary to refer back to the
design brief, drawings and production
planning. Produce the model, prototype, product,
artwork, event or piece of writing by using
materials using techniques/processes using
data.
44
Design process
Analysing and evaluating
It is important to reflect on and analyse and
evaluate the outcomes of design and production
activities. Key questions to ask Does the
solution solve the problem, needs, wants and
opportunities outlined in the design brief or
further developed during the design process?
How could the process of designing and producing
be improved? What has been learned about
ways of thinking throughout the design
process?
