What should I include in my project descriptions?

Your project description is the key to your project's success. They are the designers' guide to understanding what you want out of the design. The better the project description, the fewer revisions you will need to make.

A sufficient amount of information will be dependent upon the design category, but here are the main items to consider when creating the perfect project brief:

  1. Start with a CLEAR title

  2. Use short paragraphs

  3. Use checklists and/or bullet points

  4. Give examples and/or references

  5. Create and add your brand folder

Here are some examples of the best project descriptions for different categories:
