Artificial Intelligence

More drafts before anything is decided

We use AI in the design process: to show more variants early, to fill drafts with real content faster and to test alternatives instead of just claiming them.

What this is about

In design projects the discussion usually revolves around two drafts, because more would be too expensive. When variants get cheaper, the discussion shifts: away from taste, towards the question of which solution does the job better.

Search wider, discard earlier

Ten approaches in the time that used to produce two. Most of them are discarded, and that is exactly where the value lies.

Real content instead of dummy text

Drafts with realistic text and images show early where a layout breaks in practice.

People make the decision

AI supplies material to compare. Which direction fits the brand is a decision, not a calculation.

More variants only help if someone chooses.

Situations that typically bring clients to us

What we actually do

Variants in the draft phase

Several design approaches worked out far enough to be comparable, without blowing the schedule.

Drafts with real content

Realistic text and images in the draft, so it becomes visible early how the layout behaves in everyday use.

Imagery for drafts

Suitable images for the review, so decisions do not hang on missing pictures.

States and edge cases

Empty lists, long names, error messages. The cases that tend to be missing from a draft and cause problems later.

Transfer to many formats

One draft is transferred to further pages and screen sizes, without each one being made by hand.

Checked against the brand

Everything that comes out of the process is checked against the corporate design and the objective.

How we work

  • 01

    Clarify the task

    What should the draft achieve, and how do you tell that it does?

  • 02

    Design broadly

    Several directions are developed in parallel, deliberately different from one another.

  • 03

    Choose

    We decide together based on the task, not on the first impression.

  • 04

    Finalise

    The chosen direction is finished by hand and turned into a result ready for handover.

The value lies in the choice, not in the generation. Tell us where your review rounds get stuck.

Frequently asked questions

More images only help if someone curates. AI speeds up the variants, while the selection and the brand stay guided.

How does dxm use AI in design?

Above all in the draft phase: several approaches worked out far enough to be comparable, drafts with realistic text and images instead of dummy text, transfer to further pages and screen sizes, as well as the states that tend to be missing from a draft – empty lists, very long names, error messages. Instead of two drafts there are ten approaches to choose from, most of which are discarded. That is exactly where the value lies.

Does this replace designers?

No. Choosing remains the actual work: which direction fits the brand and the task is a decision, not a calculation. AI supplies material to compare and takes the legwork off your hands, such as transferring a layout to many formats. Without someone who curates and checks against the corporate design, all you get is more files.

Are we allowed to use the results commercially?

We clarify licence, provenance and brand risk before anything goes into a campaign or onto a product page. For drafts and internal review the requirements are lower than for published imagery. Where rights are unclear or a similarity to protected designs could arise, we avoid it or produce the traditional way. This check is part of the service and is not left to you.

Which formats is this useful for?

For screen design and web, because many screen sizes and states have to be covered there anyway, for presentation and concept images, and for social formats with many crops. It is less suitable wherever precision counts – artwork preparation, print files, technical illustrations. Everything that comes out of the process, we check against the corporate design and the objective.

Review rounds going in circles?

Tell us where it gets stuck. Often it is not drafts that are missing, but something to compare them with.
