At Design Pool, we like to say that our creative process is client-driven. We do this work because we love to see our designs find their way into a client\u2019s product and out into the marketplace. Founder Kristen Dettoni does the majority of the design work for Design Pool and is passionate about creating a beautiful and useful design library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For Kristen, her design process usually starts with a robust market and trend research. She knows that the more information she has about a client\u2019s (or potential client\u2019s) market, the better she\u2019ll be able to create something that will work effectively for them. Research can involve anything from getting out and visiting stores, reading magazines, or attending tradeshows. But while those can be useful, she also remembers that those avenues show her products that already exist. She believes it\u2019s just as important to be inspired to create something new and unique. For this reason, she also goes to museums, local art shows, or learns a new art technique. Learning about bead weaving, natural dyeing, ceramics, or needle punching expands her creative toolbox and opens her mind up to new ideas and innovative approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
