Design OS: The Complete Design Agency Notion Template

Design OS is a Notion template that manages your client pipeline, project delivery, task execution, approvals, and weekly capacity planning.

Stop jumping between scattered tools, spreadsheets, and endless chat threads. Design OS brings your entire design agency into a single, unified workspace. Built for boutique creative studios and agency owners, it connects your leads, active projects, daily tasks, and team capacity together.

What’s Inside?

• 6 Core Hubs: Design OS Command Center, Clients Hub, Projects Hub, Tasks Hub, Approvals Hub, and Capacity Hub.
• Client Pipeline: Track relationships from new lead to active client, complete with follow-up signals and next actions.
• Project Delivery: Monitor stage, health, budget vs. cost margin, and deadlines on a visual timeline.
• Task Execution: A daily-focus workflow board to separate today’s work from the backlog.
• Approvals Workflow: Manage deliverable versions, revision rounds, and explicit signoffs to stop conflicting feedback.
• Capacity Planning: Compare booked hours against available hours to spot team overload before deadlines slip.

How It Works

1. Set up in minutes: Use the included 5-step start guide.
2. Review daily: Check the Design OS homepage for today’s tasks, client follow-ups, and review deadlines.
