Don’t go back to the drawing board. Get client buy-in on your ideas before you design anything.

Nail Your Visual Direction Fast

What if you knew exactly what your client wanted?

What if you could quickly visualize your ideas, without a huge investment of your time?

What if you could present your ideas with confidence and clarity, knowing that you and your client will be aligned moving forward?

You’ve just landed your biggest design project to date. Your client gives you some key words to base your work off of: modern, clean, and simple. Surely, you know what those words mean and what they look like, and obviously the client does, too.

You both talked about it.

You break from the creative brief and get moving. For weeks, you pour your heart and soul into every little piece of this project. You’re confident that this is your best work yet. This is going to blow your client away.

Fast forward to presentation day, and you’re pumped up. You’re ready to watch your client collect their jaw from the floor.

Then they utter the words that punch you right in the gut.

“This isn’t what I pictured at all. This is not what we talked about. What else do you have to show me?”

How is that possible? Why did they suddenly realize that what you’ve shown them isn’t what they want?

Your client didn’t just suddenly decide that—you were never aligned on the visual direction to begin with. All of a sudden, you start to feel it:

“This client is a nightmare. They don’t understand design. They don’t understand my process.”

Yes, some clients are tough. You might not always see eye to eye. But we can’t read their minds. (Even though that’d be pretty sweet.) We have to know how to speak the same language.

Your process is missing something vital.

What’s a Stylescape™?

You might know them as mood boards, style tiles, or tear sheets. A Stylescape is a curated collection of images, textures, typography, and colors that communicate a certain look and feel. It defines the visual direction and gives clients a crystal-clear picture of the deliverables ahead.

Stylescapes are designed to be shared with clients before the visual design phase to make sure everyone’s in agreement with the direction. When you and the client sign off on a modern, clean, and simple design, you have a visual reference tool to communicate exactly what that might look like.

Information is bound to get lost in translation.

You could ask clients loads of questions but never get clarity on their answers. What ‘modern’ means to you, could mean something completely different to them. You’d end each brief with a lot of unclear objectives.

And that won’t end well. Each project then turns into a constant guessing game of trying to figure out what clients really mean.

But we can stop guessing, and start knowing.

Stylescapes help to close the imagination gap and get clients to see what you see. Both parties can get on the same page about the design direction from the get-go, and have something to reference throughout the project.

As designers, it’s easy for us to imagine what something will look like. Sometimes it’s hard to explain our ideas without going the extra mile. But with Stylescapes, you’ll dodge unnecessary, added work and hit your client’s expectations on the mark.

If you’re tired of designing with headaches and feeling trapped in an abyss of revisions, this is the course for you.
