6 Important Steps To Develop an Effective Creative Design

Steps To Develop an Effective Creative Design

In the world of templates and free designs, creativity is taking a toll. Creative designs are not mere readymade templates that you can pick and get the job done. Creative designing process that ensures design becoming an eye-catcher is rather rigorous. Let's analyze six major steps in developing an effective creative design:

  1. Collecting Information

    Do not just settle with the generic information or brief given by the client. Drill down further to understand the product/service and try to achieve clear and conclusive information about the design objective, customer preferences, competitors' design outlook, primary features, key value proposition, and so on. It's only when the designer understands the brands inside-out can he churn out designs that appeal to the customers.

  2. Defining Structure

    The design structure should be arrived at after a healthy and debating discussion between, designers, marketers, business heads, and copywriters. The output shall clearly draw a guideline as to what the concept, design, color, imagery, and content combination shall be. You also have to consider time factor, design relevance, target audience, market trends, client's requirements, budgets, tools/applications to be used, etc.

  3. Creating Multiple Designs and Concepts

    After concluding on different design structures and combinations, try out multiple concepts by distributing designing tasks to your resource teams. Do this by creating a sense of competition among them, this will tickle their competitive and creative juices and bring out the best design options.

  4. Designing with the Client and Not for the Client

    If possible, it's important to take your clients' feedback and work along with them at every stage of your creative design. This will increase client's trust in your graphic design services, and help you create effective designs. Also, remember to give the client a final surprise by adding your creative designing skills to your discussions, and presenting an amazing and compelling design.

  5. Compare and Judge

    Once you end up with multiple designs, you can compare and rate them to arrive at the best. For instance, you can score your designs based on concept, creativity, relevance, ergonomics, simplicity, technical features, feasibility, aesthetics, business aspects, and so on. It is important to chalk out the parameters for judgment in advance, and give weightage to the areas that are more important for the task at hand.

  6. Design Presentation and Approval

    Share your designs with your client with enough information as to why you have sketched a particular design, and then let the client take the final call. Sometimes clients may overlook a design on visual grounds but with your creative experience you can justify the design with ample evidence and ideas. This is where adding crucial design information to each design is important.

To conclude, here is what Steve Jobs had to say about creative design to Fortune:

"In most people's vocabularies, design means veneer. It's interior decorating. It's the fabric of the curtains or the sofa. But to me, nothing could be further from the meaning of design. Design is the fundamental soul of a human-made creation that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or service."
