Design brief
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A design brief is a comprehensive written document for a design project developed in concert by a person representing the business need for design and the designer. The document is focused on the desired results of design – not aesthetics.
Design briefs are an extremely important part of the functions of companies and corporations, especially engineering firms. A typical design brief will follow the following layout:

- Time
- Needs of the Problem
- Goals
- What you plan to accomplish

- What you plan to accomplish
- Solution Analysis
- Synopsis
- Evaluation
