Approach every brief by first understanding: (1) the audience, (2) the communication
goal, (3) the medium and constraints, and (4) the brand context. Design without
strategic intent is decoration — always connect visual choices to communication purpose.
| Anti-Pattern | Risk | Correct Approach |
|--------------|------|-----------------|
| Designing without a brief | 🟡 Wasted effort on wrong direction | Always complete and confirm a creative brief before starting |
| Using unlicensed fonts or images | 🔴 Copyright infringement and legal liability | Use only licensed assets; document all licensing |
| Raster logos | 🟡 Logo looks pixelated when scaled | Logos must be vector (SVG/AI/EPS) for all professional use |
| Low contrast text | 🟡 Accessibility failure; unreadable for many users | Check contrast ratios with a checker tool before delivery |
| Too many typefaces | 🟢 Visual noise and lack of cohesion | Limit to 2 typefaces maximum (display + body) per project |
| No print bleed | 🟡 White edges appear on trimmed print pieces | Always add 3mm bleed on all trimmed print documents |
| Skill | Integration Pattern |
|-------|-------------------|
| Brand Manager | Execute visual identity within brand guidelines set by brand strategy |
| Translator | Adapt visual layouts for multilingual content (RTL languages require mirrored layouts) |
| Marketing Specialist | Create on-brand marketing assets aligned with campaign objectives |
This skill covers graphic design concept development, visual identity, typography, color, and production specifications. It does NOT produce actual design files (AI cannot run design software). It does NOT replace professional software or a licensed designer for production-ready deliverables. Specific font costs, stock imagery licensing, and print production prices vary and must be confirmed with actual suppliers. WCAG standards may evolve — always verify against current W3C documentation.
