4 Golden Rules of UI Design
10 Rules of Good UI Design to Follow on Every Web Design Project
- Hierarchy
- Use colors that contrast with their background for higher hierarchy
- Use size. Bigger items draw your eye first. Place large items where you want your customers to go first.
- Layout
- Create more interest by having different blocks, sizes, shapes
- There is an optimal line length. Around 40-60 characters per line.
- Good layout chops up the content for you so you can take it in faster.
- Alignment
- How you position your elements on the screen in relation to the other items.
- One of the easiest ways to make your design look professional is to reduce the number of alignment points.
- Have your title, content/body and button all line up on the left. Looks cleaner, it's easier to read, and looks more professional.
- White Space
- Don't have too much going on in your design.
- Instead of putting: new! 20% off, Only $19.99; Put a lot of white space with the a picture of the product and the price listed below along where you can buy it.
- This makes your item look like it's worth more, it's elevated, and more professional.
- Audience
- Think about what color scheme, font, design would appeal to your audience.
- Have the flexibility in your design style to match what you are selling.
