5 steps that improve your web design workflow

This saves us a lot of time in the web design process... ⏰

Eigentlich very simple — Clearly structured and well-thought-out processes. 🚀

💬 Initial consultation/briefing

Certainly not surprising to anyone, it is simply important to get an accurate picture of the scope, functions, target group, budget and goals of the website and to understand the customer.

📊 Mood board

In coordination and consultation with our customers, we create a board on which inspiration is collected and a style is defined. Here, initial inspiration for specific sections (CTA, Hero,...) is already being collected and suggestions for fonts and color combinations are being developed.

🖼 Wireframes (wireframe)

We determine in which order the individual sections are useful, describe the relationships between elements and determine the structure/structure of the page (s). This file is still almost completely filled with placeholders (text and image). Only structurally important headlines such as “CTA” or “Contact Section” are presented

🖥 Screen design

Briefing, mood board and wireframe are brought together here to determine the final look of the website. In various design tools (e.g. Figma), the layout, look & feel is determined pixel-perfect. Customers receive an interactive link and can comment on layout changes and wishes at any time from here.

⌨🖱 Implementation

The final state of screen design is now being developed into a real prototype on the web. Animations, features, and interfaces implemented. Clients receive access to the work or development domain and can view the current status of the project at any time. Once the website is fully implemented and approved, the migration to the live domain takes place. Et voila — a happy clientele with a web presence in which they find themselves 🥳

⚠ Important here:
The customer is involved at every step, so there are no misunderstandings. These quickly lead to duplicate work when communication is unclear, as steps have to be repeated 🤯

What does your development process look like? Do you have any suggestions for improvement? 😊
