Principles of User interfaces

Principles of user interfaces let us know how design should be viewed on interfaces to create effective designs throughout our career and in projects.

Content format

The content that is exposed to the viewer of the interface should always be formatted or sized correctly to fit their device screen, allowing the viewer to face no problems while going through the given content e.g.

Touch controls

Every asset that is exposed to the user that is able to be interacted with should be shown in the simplest form it is able to be formed into, to create a non stressful environment for the user so they are able to access the features without any complications e.g.

Text Size

Text size is an important part of the user interface, as it gives information to the users therefore it needs to be perfect and adjusted correctly to the different screen sizes.

Most importantly, the user must see the difference between;

Using one text size for all these, can cause confusion and informal structure of designs, therefore having different sizes for each item, shows the user difference between each item.

This can also be achieved and strengthened by using correct spacing between words or paragraphs to give the paragraphs and screen space.
