Design review rituals that save time
Jul 22, 2024•7 min read•By Hana Mahmoud
Run weekly reviews that keep feedback focused, prevent rework, and keep creative momentum high.
Set a cadence
Keep reviews on the same day and time each week.
Consistency allows the team to prepare and reduces surprise changes.
Limit attendees to decision-makers so feedback stays focused and actionable.
Use a decision log
Capture final decisions immediately after each review.
It avoids re-litigating the same topics in future rounds.
Keep the log in a shared doc so anyone can reference past decisions quickly.
Keep feedback actionable
Frame feedback as a user problem to solve, not just a visual preference.
Actionable notes speed up revisions and reduce churn.
Bundle notes by priority to prevent a long list of low-impact tweaks.
