Setting out on a learning project can be like launching a rocket. Small errors in trajectory at the start can have you landing somewhere completely unexpected.

To avoid these errors, we complete a High Level Design for complex projects before we dive into the detail of storyboarding.

Hearing that you’ve got something wrong can be a horrible feeling. If you’re anything like me, your stomach sinks, your hands go clammy and you immediately start to do a mental audit trying to figure out just when and how you could possibly have made the mistake!

It would be great to avoid that feeling forever – but if you’re a designer, it’s going to happen at some point. It’s not a matter of if but when.

So, what can you do to make it easier on everyone?
