Visual Design
The Most Exciting Design Systems Are Boring
Josh Clark
​
Goal is normcore!
Common challenges the better.
We are not supposed to be searching for new innovative ways to do things... we are supposed to curate.
​
UX is about problem solving. We must extract the best solutions for these common challenges. We must make a good everyday design. Consistency is key.
Also the more boring and simple a design system is, the more a designer and developer can change.
Like Brad Frost, Josh also talks about the way design systems produce more results meanwhile without one will take more people to produce less.
​
What UX Designers must do is create the simple layout for others to get creative.
8 visual design tips for UX Designers
Kevin Rhodes
​
The UX life is usability.
The functional components of a design is one of the most important parts of creating a better understanding for the audience.
Aesthetics are also very important because the more attractive it is, the more people will be caught in it.
​
Beauty alters the way we behave.
​
Important things to think about:
-Good grid system that controls proximity
-Design patterns that show instant recognition to save time
-Think of user's view and create incomplete spaces and folds to let the user experience the rest of the information
-Balance out layout
-Animation for synchronic ways of viewing
-Lines of continuity
-Flat for orderly and simple
-CONSISTENCY, for the 1,000,000 time
-BEAUTY
