[Epilogue] Can I keep working?

If your design is finished, but you're just seeing a growing number of 'final_real_final_real_real_final.ai' files, this book is for you.


Every morning, I go to work and sit at my desk, but what I actually spend my time on is meetings and reports rather than design.

Requests for revisions start with "Please change this a little bit" and never end. I thought becoming a freelancer would be liberating, but instead, every day is filled with estimates and schedules.

In this reality that everyone who makes a living from design experiences, we often ask ourselves:
“Am I doing the right thing? Is this the right path?”

"Designer Commuting to Work, Freelance Designer" is a book that records the survival skills learned by a designer who has experienced both the stability and teamwork within the company walls and the freedom and anxiety of standing alone.
What makes this book special is that it is not simply a manual on how to do something, but rather vividly depicts actual situations encountered in the field and the process of resolving them.


for example,
How to maintain your planning intent while receiving feedback from your boss without ruining your relationship
√ Clauses that should not be omitted from a freelance contract and when to increase the amount
√ How to efficiently divide remaining work the day before the deadline
It contains experiences that you can use right away, like today.


Design isn't a solo endeavor, but sometimes there are things you have to do alone.
This book will be your companion, walking alongside you through every moment.
