Below are the stages involved in producing a successful design project. You have only completed a design project if you work through each of the sections. Usually the sections are attempted in order as this will take you through the entire design process. Clicking on each of the section titles will take you to the blank template page you could use as the basis to your project. It is recommended that you view the website section 'Design Process' before viewing the sections below as it gives vital information on each aspect of a design project. This can be found on the Site Index Page. The entire template is available as a download / printable PDF document (see below)
