The Web Design Workflow

Ask a lot of questions so everyone is clear on the end goal for the project.

All about the customer, or client, and whatever it is they’re ordering.

Workflow starts with debriefing phase.

Debriefing

Conduct research into anything we need further clarification on including our clients, the products they offer, our client’s competition, latest design trends.

After the debriefing phase

Research & Planning:

Deliverables of Design

Preparation of deliverables the client is requesting.

Mockups

Wireframes

Sitemaps

Deliverables of Design

visual outlines that act as a blueprint to help define website structure. They help us understand the web pages we need, how they’ll be connected to one another, and the overall hierarchy for the website content.

Wireframes are used to create design structure and rather than using actual imagery and graphics they’re replaced with simple shapes and icons with varying shades of gray.

incorporate color and imagery so our designs resemble what the actual finished website would look like. Mockups are typically made after the client has approved the wireframes.

Testing refers to having individuals who would represent our client’s target audience look at our designs and give us feedback.

Important to balance between confidence in our own design decisions and having the openness to change our designs based on feedback.

Seek feedback from a variety of sources such as our peers, clients, and any other relevant parties.
