I suggest the companies should give the space and time to designer, no pressure.
as a good designer , must insist on design love it.

First I would create the story to the design then follow my story to do research and what elements will use, after that I finish my design base on my research and what element i use

lamp, table , chair , computer , sofa

usually I walk exhibition , work and search what I get from the exhibition with staff or friends .

I have no any commit , because I am young designer too

In positives, designer will explore their life and can learn a lot of new knowledge.
In negatives, designer is a special job, if you want your design be good, you may spent a lot of time on it.

Insist on Design, Love it, because if you love it, you not feel tired and unhappy when you are working.

Create skill , and your personal style.
computer skill and handwork skill is important too but how to use depending designer mind.

for me , I usually use Adobe Photoshop , illustration, solidwork and keyshort.

I will set the time line and give the deadline for myself, if don't the design would never be done.

depend on the design complex, some 1 week, some 1 month

I am often asked about the different with idea and concept.

in my study period , I were been social designer as an intern which to redesign a whole funeral at sea event, and I design to how to reduce the pollution with sea . as the details I chose the paper can be break down on the sea which I did many research on internet. I found out one of a brand new plastic sachet and packaging made from seaweed, edible bio-plastic that is good to reduce the pollution with the sea. at the end, base on the material is not common, the budget will increase, so my concept didn't accepted.
