It may seem a bit exaggerated to hear the words "user experience should be considered in site design " or "site design testing is very important". But you have to remember some things in this field, and this week we will deal with this issue from the topic of design.
Each week, we focus on the major products that have just been released and promoted, the tools and tricks, and even the popular ones that you talk about on social media.
Design testing is very important
The Airbnb website released a logo this week and caused a stir among the site's designers. What does this circular icon mean?
The company calls the logo BELO and introduced the new design on its blog as a "global symbol of ownership". BRIAN CHESKY says in this post: "The sense of ownership has been one of the basic emotions of humanity. So we designed a symbol to show this sense. This logo is an icon of our pages, content and values and business. "It is us. It is a symbol that, like ourselves, can take over wherever it appears."
Website and logo designers had other opinions. TWITTER is filled with ideas that some designers believe the symbol is like the heart and is part of the human body anatomy.
Many designers have noticed the similarities between this logo and another logo related to automation, which are very similar.
Here are some of these comments:
@KHOI : Has anyone noticed the unwanted meaning of this logo as part of the anatomy of the human body?
@YVESBEHAR : Transformation in the beauty of @AIRBNB brand , a highlight for @JGEBBIA & @BCHESKY .
@DA_MN : AIRBNB . logo. Failure and failure.
@EESPIEKERMANN : This logo has new designs at the end: @AIRBNB
No matter what the logo means, this example provides us with an important lesson: Testing any design is very important. If people want to look at this picture, then the company has been successful, otherwise this design is the result of hasty and thoughtless work that even users and people do not want to look at.
Responsive website design works best
From the very beginning of the introduction of responsive site design, there have always been complaints about its poor performance and speed. KADLEC objected to this with a beautiful blog post.
He stated that this is an excuse for people not to implement websites in other tools. He also noted that he could reconcile and persuade anyone with this interpretation in mind:
"Improper execution of websites is due to the lack of attention to responsive website design. Those who say that responsive website design has poor performance are like those who say that the touch environment is not suitable for mobile phones. This category of people "They can never ignore the enjoyable experience that users get from this kind of website design."
