Share Description
The user interface is a visual representation of the underlying computer system that serves as the primary point of interaction for all users. To improve product usability, the appearance and behaviours should be well understood, simple to learn, and enjoyable to use. This course's lessons teach the proper use of colour, type, iconography, illustrations, and micro-interactions when designing an interface for any system. Diane Cronenwett examines visual principles such as grouping and hierarchy, explains how and when to use iconography, discusses the significance and impact of colour, and demonstrates how to take designs further with illustration and animation.
