    As a designer I'm charged out (by my agency) at about £1000 a day. So that would be 4 days of my times. 4 days to do a style guide is no time at all, normally it would take a couple of week, including writing the content, pulling together all the visuals, layout etc.
    But then I work at quite a large agency, working on large international clients, who generally require pretty in-depth styleguides.

    It all depends on how detailed and content-heavy the guide is

    • I appreciate this, but pretty sure they will have a jr. or an intern do it since it is really just compiling information. Not super content heavy eitherflashbender
    • << content heavy eitherflashbender
    • It's not as siple as "compiling information", determinging what should be included, making the information consistent, resolving inconsistencies, etc. It's a lot of workJosev
    • inconsistencies, etc. it's a lot of work.Josev
