Pitch This! How To present design work to clients like a pro!

How do you talk about design work? How do you develop your design vocabulary? If the work is good, shouldn't it speak for itself? How can you use words to fill the mental gaps of imagination.

“Paint the picture for your client , make them feel the boat rock, make them smell the saltiness in the breeze, make them visualize the structure. Prepare them for a meal so that when they open their eyes they are ready to eat.”

Ever have trouble pitching your idea to the client and want to improve? You are not the only one. Chris and Ben each have to sell their idea in Pitch This!

These are style frames for 450 Alaskan in Seattle. It's a new real estate development in historic Pioneer Square.
