A project brief is a shared understanding of what a space needs to do. It can start simply: what works today, what needs to change, and what you hope a new space will make possible.
Describe how you want to live or work
Think about a typical day. Where do people gather? What needs privacy? Which parts of the current space feel difficult to use? Everyday examples give a design team something concrete to work with.
Separate essentials from possibilities
A clear list of priorities helps when decisions need to be made. Consider which changes are essential, which would be valuable, and which could be explored later.
Keep the conversation open
A useful brief creates direction while leaving room for discovery. Drawings, images, sketches, and questions can all help build a shared picture.
