Normally how long would you took in your design process?
How long the logo would take?

How long is the designing in Photoshop?
Then how long in HTML?

This is just for your initial design.....

Thanks for the response.

Timelines depend more on scope and process than on a single rule. asked about logo, Photoshop comps and HTML, and noted that having an existing house-style helps a lot. Key variables are number of pages, responsiveness and breakpoints, custom artwork or animations, CMS integration, and how many revision cycles the client allows.

Logo work ranges from a quick tweak to a multi-day branding exercise. A practical workflow: brief -> sketch/concept exploration -> a few visual directions -> selected direction -> one or two revision rounds -> final file exports (SVG, PNG, mono/color variants) plus a short usage note. Save time by collecting examples, required sizes/formats, and must-have constraints before starting.

For visual design, treat the initial Photoshop or UI comp as one deliverable in a chain. Design core components (header, hero, content cards, footer) first, then apply them across pages and breakpoints. If the project is responsive, plan desktop plus at least two smaller breakpoints or design responsive variants. Using component-friendly tools (Figma/Sketch or a clear PSD component system) speeds handoff and reduces duplicated work.

Converting to HTML/CSS varies with interactivity and backend needs. Convert components rather than pages, export optimized assets, use scalable SVGs where possible, and include a short QA pass for browsers and accessibility. Practical controls: get final content early, define acceptance criteria and breakpoints up front, timebox revision rounds, and add a buffer for client feedback. In small teams a single person can cover both design and build, but plan each step and review explicitly so the schedule stays realistic.

The company I worked for last, the designer there needed 4 hours for a website design and we needed 4 hours to convert it correctly. This would be a design based on an existing house-style and/or logo.

The designer is just one person for one design I presume? Then how many people converting it to HTML?

In our case, also one.
