Design Brief & Self Evaluation Template

Design Brief.

A design brief is a written description and identification of your project’s intention, process, concept and aesthetic composition. The design brief is important in helping you learn to articulate the ideas and concept behind your design, which can be particularly helpful when presenting to a client, employer, or instructor.

A new design brief should be written and turned in with each assignment. This design brief should be typed for legibility and professional purposes. Please delete the descriptive instructions and fill in with your content. The written content and the use of proper grammar/punctuation and art/software terminology of these design briefs will be considered in grading.

The following template should be used as the format for each design brief:
