Roundup Pt. 1 - A super specific smörgåsbord

Episode 9,   Mar 12, 11:00 AM

As we near the end of Season 1 of “Well, you’re the designer,” we’re embarking on the first leg of a whirlwind tour of creative curveballs and client clangers. This week: “Roundup Pt. 1 - A super specific smörgåsbord”


Season 1 of “Well, you’re the designer” is nearing the end. To round things off, we've swept up all the leftover morsels into an appetising two-part buffet of baffling briefs and frustrating feedback. We’ve split the resulting smörgåsbord into “super specific” and “frustratingly vague.” This week it’s the turn of the “super specific” requests, so we’re discussing:

  • “Please include this small pointless map”
  • “Replace this picture with one of the opposite orientation”
  • “Use this terrible font combination”
  • “Bullet points only”
  • “Use my grotty, badly-framed images over good quality stock photos”
  • “Use the international phone number format”
Listen to the end to see how Matt and Rich score each client clanger.
