UI Design Process (a better)
A bit of background... I’m Lauren Thompson UI/UX Designer at
hedgehog lab Front-end developer Moonlight freelancer All over the Twitters (@lrnn) www.iliketheuniverse.co.uk
Do your research. Talk to stakeholders. Talk to users. Talk
to your developers. Focus. Research, inform, ask 1 Mr. Craig Tweedy
Get away from your screen. Start on paper. Don’t restrict
yourself. It doesn’t have to be ‘pretty’ Get creative. Sketch, scribble, throw away 2
Balsamiq – rapid fire prototyping Pencil, paper, coloured pencils!
Now jump into <insert favourite tool> Pin down key interactions.
Perfect your layouts. Create solid foundations for your design. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Refine the details 3
patternry.com ui-patterns.com
KeynoteKungF u - www.keynotekungfu.com Photoshop (great for pixel pushing)
You’ve got solid foundations, now make it ‘shine’ Choose colours
wisely. Get inspired * Don’t overcompensate for shitty UX with overdone design. Be intuitive – do what feels and looks good. Polish the pixels. 4 * (that doesn’t mean stealing trendy ideas from dribbble!)
It doesn’t need to be made out of leather.
But it should at least make sense.
Happy users (i.e. customers) Happy clients. Happy developers. Happy you.
Job’s a good’un. :) Happy people! 5
THAAAANKS! Any questions?
