Requesting a design

How to send a request, write a brief that works and save a draft to finish later.

Open Request a design from the sidebar, the command bar (press N) or Home.

1. Pick the kind of work first. Each kind lists what one request covers.
2. Write the brief. Questions appear as you pause typing, to fill the gaps a designer would ask about. Help me write it drafts a brief from a few words; check it before you send.
3. Add files and timing. Attach anything you have (old versions, sites you admire) and give the real date you need it by, and why.

Drafts

If you leave part-way, your request is saved as a draft and shown on Requests. Drafts are cleaned up after 30 days.

Work outside your plan

If a kind of work isn't in your plan, the page says so and offers the plan that includes it. Team members who ask for out-of-plan work send it to the account owner to decide.

Writing a good brief

• Say what it's for. "A one-pager to leave on the trade-show stand" beats "a brochure".
• Give the real date, and why. We plan back from it.
• Attach what you have. Rough is fine.
