Abstract
The main objectives of the Phase 1 report are to describe the premise of the design project and indicate the motivation of the design, to provide an overview of the design process specific to the project, to clearly define the design problem, to identify and document the client’s project requirements—distinguishing between the ‘Must haves’, ‘Should haves’ and ‘Could haves’ requirements, and to outline the prospective project schedule.
To design is to communicate clearly by whatever means you can control or master.
—Milton Glaser
