How I Build Design Work
01 - Discovery
I define audience, constraints, and communication goals before touching layout or styling.
02 - Structure
I map content architecture and typographic hierarchy so each piece has a strong visual system.
03 - Visual Direction
I explore mood, composition, and graphic language while keeping consistency across deliverables.
04 - Production
I prepare polished outputs with print-safe settings, clear file naming, and presentation-ready exports.
