COVER DESIGNS
Proposal covers are a big part of what I do for the Central District Marketing team at Parsons Brinckerhoff (PB). There is no standard cover design template, but there are tight deadlines.
My process starts with research about the client and the project. I have to match that information with PB’s previous experience, research available photography, and lay out a draft cover design in just a few hours.
