PLEASE NOTE that the Creative Design Briefs are industry standard and are designed to give you practice at working to a professional design brief. In addition we hope they will help you to carve and create a professional portfolio which you are proud of.

As these are practice briefs please note the Make it in Design team will be unable to answer any questions you may have around the briefs. We would advise you use them as creative starting points and do feel free to adapt / think outside of the box with them.
