Developers become designers? enotions changes its approach
Designers have always chopped up their designs and given them to developers to build. That’s how it’s always been. The unwritten rule.
But recently we’ve started to do things differently here at enotions and it’s working really rather well. Designers, of course, still design the sites but rather than also chop the designs for the developer to build, once completed, the Photoshop files are handed over to the developers who then chop them themselves.
By doing this, designers can focus on their chief skill - producing eyeball popping designs - whilst developers can chop the designs exactly how they want them chopped. No more drawn out conversations about wanting ‘this bit chopped like this and this bit like that.’ Gone are our annotated developer notes. Hurrah!
This approach has revolutionised the way we work and sped up our work too. In doing so, every one is happy. The designers can focus on what they like doing - designing. The developers know that the designs will be chopped exactly how they want them to be. I’m happy, because the team is happier and more efficient than ever. And, of course, because we’re working smarter and faster, clients are happier because their sites are produced quicker!
