Description
User interface design can be a complex and subjective field, but what if there were a single perspective to simplify these issues? UI is Communication by Everett McKay offers a practical approach to designing intuitive user interfaces by focusing on effective human communication. A well-designed user interface is ultimately a conversation between users and technology, using the language of UI to communicate efficiently and naturally. Good user interfaces recognize that there's an emotional human being at the other end of the interaction, striving to make an emotional connection. This approachable guide provides a clear design process that ties everything together, from interaction to visual design. With real examples and design makeovers, you can immediately apply these principles to your projects and make solid design decisions with confidence. By applying the communication-based design process outlined in UI is Communication, you'll be able to remove much of the mystique and complexity from user interface design, making it a more accessible and effective field.
