Description
The Design of Everyday Things by Donald A. Norman Good design is not just about aesthetics, but about creating products that are intuitive and easy to use. This book argues that the problems we encounter when using everyday products are often due to poor design, rather than our own ineptitude. Norman, a cognitive scientist, explores the principles of good design and how they can be applied to create products that are both functional and user-friendly. By examining the ways in which products can be designed to guide the user towards the right action, Norman reveals the importance of making things visible, exploiting natural relationships between controls and functions, and making intelligent use of constraints. This insightful analysis is a powerful primer on how to create products that satisfy customers and meet their needs. Now fully expanded and updated, this edition includes a new introduction by the author, making it an essential read for anyone interested in design, psychology, and user experience.
