Designers

A designer is usually defined as a person who creates things by drawing them and then making copies of them and seeing how they match with existing things. This definition can also include a person who makes models of existing objects and designs them. Sometimes, designers are used in the business world to create plans and designs for products. The designer may be hired by a company to create a logo or an image that will be used on many items that the company manufactures. The designer may also be hired to create a plan for the execution of a project or a process, such as the production of a product or the development of a new process for something.

A principal designer is one who supervises the work of other designers. The term principal means the person who actually does the designing. Designers can belong to an organization, a firm, an individual, or a business. Contract designers are people who are specifically involved in contract work with other people to develop or create things from the designs that the principal designer creates. Designers can also belong to a group or an agency. An example of this would be a design team in a large corporation.

There are two main types of designers, the one who acts as the principal designer for a particular project and the other who works as a subcontractor. The majority of designers work in firms or large corporations. When a domestic client requests a design from a designer, the designer first checks the project against the principal’s instructions and determines if there are any conflicts. If there are, the designer drafts a contract or spec sheet for both principal and subcontractor to read. Once all parties agree on the specifications, it is normally signed and the project is assigned to either a designer or a principal designer.
