The UX/UI-Chronicles: Design Principles in UX/UI Design
As far as aesthetics and much further
Successful mobile app design is not based on creative intuition alone; it is based on established design principles that make an interface both aesthetically pleasing and functional. These principles include Alignment, Proximity, Repetition, Emphasis, Contrast, Balance, Hierarchy and White Space. Each plays a crucial role in the design process and aims to optimise the user experience.
The design principles in detail
Structured beauty
The aligned arrangement of elements creates a visual order that makes it easier for users to quickly grasp information. This principle supports visual consistency and leads to an intuitive and accessible user interface.
Proximity as a tool
The spatial proximity of related elements to each other helps to create a logical structure in the presentation of information. The grouping of related items creates an organised and easy-to-understand layout.
