Design process phases

There are six defined phases of the design process, each of them comes with a description of the tasks that need to be done during it.

Recommended tariffs

The prices listed in recommendations represent approximate values that are not legally binding. They show the ideal pricing of services in a certain range. The lower recommended price withing a certain range represents the value of a less demanding project or a project for a smaller client, while the higher price applies to very demanding projects or larger clients. Recommended values are displayed in euros and are calculated as gross prices of the service, but do not include VAT. For each recommended price, there are additional descriptions in notes marked with an asterisk listing the name of the item or explaining forms of work.

Guidelines

The guidelines describe legal, professional and business aspects of the design process and are intended for designers, clients, and other stakeholders of the design process.

They are divided into content sections “ABOUT RECOMMENDATIONS”, “STAGES OF THE DESIGN PROCESS”, “DESIGNER AND CLIENT”, “COPYRIGHTS” and “QUALIFICATION”.

Calculator

The calculator is a tool that helps to assess the recommended value of the entire project. The recommended tariffs on the printout are arranged according to the phase of the design process to which they belong. The price set can be exported to an Excel file.
