Phase I: Design
No. 1
Design Development
At TEL-DAN, our process begins with interpreting the theme boards provided to us by the customer. Our experienced in-house designers and trusted third-party trend consultants refer to your theme boards as they develop compelling designs.
No matter how simple or complex your vision is, our goal is always to present you with design options that are creative, well-considered and commercially viable.
In this example, our USA-based client sent us theme boards featuring pillows with tropical jungle prints.

Design Selection
Next, we present a design shortlist.
If more design options are needed, or if adjustments are requested, we go back to the drawing board until the customer is fully satisfied. According to the customer’s preference, this step can be completed by email, or through a combination of email and video calls conducted in English.
The jungle print designs you see in this image were created by TEL-DAN’s in-house team. Our customer chose several of these concepts for production.
Phase II: Development

Development Samples
The development phase kicks off with samples. We send physical samples or high-quality photos or graphics. When introducing new products or fabrics, we always send physical samples, so that our customers may see and feel the products.
This white jungle print on a navy background was one of the final selections for our USA customer.
