What Is a Design Contract?
A Design Contract is a written legal agreement that regulates the relationship between a client and a designer. In this relationship, a client is an individual (or an entity) that requests a design project (or related services), while a designer is an individual (or an entity) that is willing to create the designated project.
Alternate Name:

The contract binds the designer to create a design project in accordance with the client’s requirements, while the client is obliged to accept the project and pay for the provided services.

A Design Contract finalizes all of the conditions that the involved parties must follow. It includes the description of the project that the client requires, the timeline of when the project must be finished, payment details, and other types of information. The agreement must include all of the crucial descriptions and requirements for the future project (pictures, drafts, and other necessary materials), otherwise when it is time to hand over the finished work the parties might have disagreements.
