User interface Design
# Describe the worst interface that you have ever

worked with and critique it relative to the concepts
studied in User Interface Design
1. The design lacks of contrast

When browsing a website, we’d like to see it with a clear and
fresh contrast. This can help us better read and understand the
info there, and thus knows how to conduct the operation. If
there’s no contrast included, both of the colour combination and
overall display of the website will make us overwhelmed. It’s
pretty difficult to read the content from the below website.
2. Not-responsive design
It’s pretty popular to use responsive design, cause we find
there’s no reason for us to make a website which cannot adapt
to the given resolution and device size. It’s a must especially for
shopping cart websites/Apps whose target audiences are
coming from mobile.
3. No user feedback with plagiarism data

It’s not a bad thing to get inspirations from others’ design
works, but we need to ensure we’ve had rich user data to make
a right decision. The following one is a typical bad example.
4. Bad IA (Information Architect)

Everybody wants to stand out from the crowd and his design
work can appeal others’ eyes. However sometimes it just goes
to the other side if we overemphasize on the creativity in the
design. To keep a good balance in the visual hierarchy can
leave a good impression on users, and it can deliver more info
to them. The below one can give us a feeling of disorder and
confusion more or less.
5. Inconsistent style
It doesn’t mean that the mashup style is not good, but if the
overall interface has a huge and ugly visual conflict, it’s better
to redesign it. An excellent UI design should be consistent on
the style in order to make users clearly understand and
respond to the given content. This will also do good to improve
the work efficiency.
# Describe the best interface that you have ever

worked with and critique it relative to the concepts
studied in User Interface Design. Important qualities
of User Interface Design are following:
1. Simplicity:
• User Interface design should be simple.
• Less number of mouse clicks and keystrokes are
required to accomplish this task. • It is important that new
features only add if there is compelling need for them and
they add significant values to the application.
2. Consistency:
• The user interface should have a more consistency.
• Consistency also prevents online designer’s information
chaos, ambiguity and instability.
• We should apply typeface, style and size convention in a
consistent manner to all screen components that will add
screen learning and improve screen readability. In this we
can provide permanent objects as unchanging reference
points around which the user can navigate.
3. Intuitiveness:
• The most important quality of good user interface design
is intuitive.
• Intuitive user interface design is one that is easy to learn
so that user can pick it up quickly and easily.
• Icons and labels should be concise and cogent. A clear
unambiguous icon can help to make user interface
intuitive and a good practice is make labels conform to the
terminology that the application supports.
4. Prevention:
• A good user interface design should prevent users from
performing an in-appropriate task and this is accomplished
by disabling or “graying cut” certain elements under
certain conditions.
5. Forgiveness:
• This quality can encourage users to use the software in a
full extent.
• Designers should provide users with a way out when
users find themselves somewhere they should not go.
6. Graphical User Interface Design:

• A graphic user interface design provides screen displays
that create an operating environment for the user and form
an explicit visual and functional context for user’s actions.
• It includes standard objects like buttons, icons, text, field,
windows, images, pull-down and pop-up screen menus.
