Opinions are bound to vary on such a crucial and potentially controversial subject but … when do you think a design is done? Sure, there are goals to be met, clients to be appeased, but at the end of the day it is the designer who decides when something is actually finished. Is it alright to simply meet the expectations of someone else or do you need to have your own goals continually in mind as well?
Some of these answers suggest that the design client truly is the decider. Others recommend taking a step back and evaluating the design to see what you really think about it. Still others have highly pragmatic suggestions concerning objective tests one can perform in order to see how far along a design truly is. Others just play it by ear: it is done when it ‘feels’ like it is done. How do you decide?
