Interactive design exploration through DavInchy.art
DavInchy.art provides the client an opportunity to show us their likes and dislikes. We do this by helping them build a basic design. They pick the style, set the colors, place the logos, and size the text. Then the client submits that artwork.One-on-one consultations with professional designers
Megan Schultz, from Harrison Elementary, decided she needed a little extra help finding something that reflected her school spirit. That’s where our team of seasoned designers stepped in to deliver a high quality product. With their extensive expertise, the designers were ready to turn Harrison Elementary's vision into a reality.
Lex, the graphic designer in charge of Harrison’s machine explained her process,
“This customer was stalled out on what to do. She had been through our Dav'Inchy design site but couldn’t get the vibe for the machine to match the art the school wanted. So I set up a zoom call with them. I recommended they send the art over to me.
After that I used their designs as a starting off point. After the initial proof, we just tweaked a few things with the wording and graphics. The school wanted to see multiple options so they never had to think "what if" about the design. It only took four proofs to be approved.”
Customized design options to ensure complete satisfaction
The design team makes all the adjustments, tweaks the graphics, and makes suggestions based on experience. First, the designer will generate a proof or first draft. Clients can make changes as much as they want. We aren’t satisfied until the client gives us a final sign-off.
