Guide for Writing Effective Briefs

Inspired by an instagram post created by @antolino.

What makes the perfect design brief?

I love a good and defined design brief, I understand the importance of parameters and restriction needed to create an awesome design solution.

As Alex says in the IG post:
"The quality of your brief determines the success of your project.⁣"

I know what you're thinking, "but, the best brief is an open brief - don't restrict my creativity."

Bullshit!

In order to be effective, your need parameters, and a good design brief is the best way to start.
Restriction reduce your options, allowing you to focus on what really matters.

Alex's easy 4-step guide to effective briefs is an awesome framework to get you started, make sure you save this one for later!
