User Experience Design

Design Systems.

A design system is a collection of reusable components that are defined in an atomic way.

Think of it as a big knowledge base with instructions, language and coding guidelines all wrapped up together. 

Process

The life cycle of a modern design sytem

An organized workspace that is friendly to non-designers, making it easy for everyone to collaborate and ship products more effectively ensuring a single source of truth.

Speed

A design system provides a shared library of components, patterns, and guidelines that the team can reuse, which can reduce the time spent on creating and coding components from scratch.

Maintenance

With a design system in place, updates and maintenance become more manageable as changes can be made to the central library and propagated throughout the product.

Collaboration

A shared design system can serve as a common language for designers, developers, and other team members, which can lead to more effective collaboration and communication.

Scaleability

A well-structured design system makes it easier to scale the product and the team, as new team members can quickly familiarize themselves with the system and contribute effectively.

Design

Getting the fundamentals in place by creating components in Figma, defining layout grids and being pixel-perfect from the start.

Understand

Work collaboratively with development teams to learn the framework they are using, existing UI and patterns will exist to build upon.

Build

Use the correct software to create a bridge between design and development, eg. whether Zeplin for smooth handover or Storybook for true export of components.

Process

Increased efficiency and direct return on investment

A well-built design system & component library will increase efficiency across scrum teams by about 20%* (*based on previous experience) bringing real financial gains to your business.

App Design

The user interface (UI) of an iPhone app and an Android app can differ in several ways. Generally, iPhone apps tend to have a more consistent and standardized UI due to the limited number of iPhone models and screen sizes, which allows developers to optimize their apps for a specific set of devices. In contrast, Android apps need to be designed to work with a wide range of screen sizes and devices, leading to more variability in the UI. Additionally, the design language for iPhone apps tends to be more minimalist and sleek, with a focus on simplicity and ease of use. Android apps, on the other hand, often have a more customizable and adaptable UI, allowing users to personalize their experience and interact with the app in a way that suits them best.

Lean process

The lean process in product design is essential because it emphasizes rapid experimentation, continuous learning, and iterative improvement, allowing designers to create a product that is both efficient and effective. The lean process involves developing a minimum viable product (MVP) that includes only the essential features and functionalities, then testing it with real users and gathering feedback to refine and improve the product. By using the lean process, designers can reduce the time and cost of product development and avoid wasting resources on features or functionalities that do not add value to the user. Moreover, the lean process can enhance the product’s usability, accessibility, and user experience, as it involves testing and validating the product with real users and incorporating their feedback into the design. Therefore, incorporating the lean process in product design is crucial for creating a successful and effective product that meets the user’s needs and provides a positive and engaging user experience while minimizing waste and maximizing value.

User Testing

User testing in product design is essential because it enables designers to evaluate and refine the product’s usability, accessibility, and user experience based on feedback from the target users. By conducting user testing, designers can identify and address usability issues, pain points, and user needs that may not be apparent from the design or development process alone. User testing can also help designers validate their assumptions, ideas, and prototypes and gain insights into user behavior, preferences, and expectations. Moreover, user testing can improve the product’s adoption, satisfaction, and retention, as it can ensure that the product meets the user’s needs and provides a positive and engaging user experience. Therefore, incorporating user testing in product design is crucial for creating a successful and effective product that not only meets the business goals but also satisfies and delights the users.
