Every designer has at some point found themselves nudging elements around on screen for an hour, only to find themselves right back where they started.

Here's a way to beat around this painful part of the design process. One designer starts (or serves) and spends 10 minutes working on a design. After ten minutes, and no matter where they’ve got to, they fire the file over to the other designer, who spends another ten minutes playing around with the design. That second designer then sends it back and you repeat this process until you’re happy. That’s it. That’s design ping pong.
