After research comes product design.

SIMPLE AND USABLE

Page 33: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

SIMPLICITY

Simple products are easy to use, so they find a popular audience.

Simple products are reliable, so people develop an attachment to them.

Simple products are adaptable, so they end up being used in surprising ways.

Page 34: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

COMPLEXITY

The more features you add, the lesschance a new feature will be of real value to anyone.

Increased complexity means userscan’t easily find the features that areimportant to them.

Page 35: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

CONTROL

The key need for users is to feel thatthey’re in control of the technology they are using, and in control of their lives. Your design shouldn’t interfere with that control.

Simple experiences make users feelconfident that they’re making goodchoices.

DESIGNISM #14,483

THE MORE USERS’ EXPECTATIONS PROVE RIGHT, THE MORE THEY WILL FEEL IN CONTROL OF THE SYSTEM AND THE MORE THEY WILL LIKE IT.– JACOB NIELSEN

SIMPLE IS NOT THE SAME AS USABLE

Page 38: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

EXTREME SIMPLICITY

To be simple, you have to aim forsomething more extreme than theregular goals for usability.

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

In 2006, John Maeda, currently the president of Rhode Island School of Design, published Laws of Simplicity to find ways for people to simplify their life in the face of growing complexity.

He was born in Seattle—whoop whoop!, worked as a software engineer at MIT before going to work at RISD, and is a practicing artist in electronic media.

Page 41: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

1. THE SIMPLEST WAY TO ACHIEVE SIMPLICITY IS THROUGH THOUGHTFUL REDUCTION.

Page 42: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

2. ORGANIZATION MAKES A SYSTEM OF MANY APPEAR FEWER. AN EFFECTIVE SCHEME FOR ORGANIZATION IS NECESSARY TO ACHIEVE DEFINITIVE SUCCESS IN TAMING COMPLEXITY.

Page 43: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

3. TIME. WHEN ANY INTERACTION WITH PRODUCTS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS HAPPENS QUICKLY, WE ATTRIBUTE THIS EFFICIENCY TO THE PERCEIVED SIMPLICITY OF EXPERIENCE.

Page 44: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

4. LEARNING. KNOWLEDGE MAKES EVERYTHING SIMPLER. DIFFICULT TASKS SEEM EASIER WHEN THEY ARE NEED TO KNOW RATHER THAN NICE TO KNOW.

Page 45: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

5. DIFFERENCES. SIMPLICITY AND COMPLEXITY NEED EACH OTHER. THE MORE COMPLEXITY THERE IS IN THE MARKET, THE MORE THAT SOMETHING SIMPLER STANDS OUT.

Page 46: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

6. CONTEXT. WHAT LIES IN THE PERIPHERY OF SIMPLICITY IS DEFINITELY NOT PERIPHERAL. UNDERSTAND THE SPACE AROUND THE USER, THE DEVICE, AND THE TASK.

Page 47: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

7. MORE EMOTIONS ARE BETTER THAN LESS. IF THEY DON’T LOVE IT, THEY HATE IT.

Page 48: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

8. IN SIMPLICITY WE TRUST. SIMPLE FEELS HONEST AND TRANSPARENT.

Page 49: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

9. FAILURE. SOME THINGS CAN NEVER BE MADE SIMPLE. NOT ALL PROBLEMS HAVE SIMPLE SOLUTIONS. NOT EVERYONE VIEWS SIMPLICITY THE SAME.

Page 50: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

LAWS OF SIMPLICITY

10. THE ONE. SIMPLICITY IS ABOUT SUBTRACTING THE OBVIOUS, AND ADDING THE MEANINGFUL. FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS, CREATE CLARITY AND PURPOSE FOR THE USER.

4 STRATEGIES FOR SIMPLICITY

RemoveOrganizeHideDisplace

Page 52: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

REMOVE

According to a recent study, 64% of software features are “never or rarely used.” Removing or omitting features can lead to successful products, and allows designers to focus on solving a few important problems really well.

FOCUS ON WHAT’S CORE

KILL LAME FEATURES

DON’T “WHAT IF...” ABOUT FUTURE FEATURES

PRIORITIZE FEATURES

CHOICE OVERWHELMS USERS

GET RID OF DISTRACTION AND CLUTTER

REMOVE WORDS

SIMPLIFY SENTENCES

Page 53: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

ORGANIZE

Organizing is often the quickest way to make things simpler.

Try to emphasize just one or two important things.

CHUNK INFORMATION INTO GROUPS

ORGANIZE FOR BEHAVIOR

MAKE STRONG DISTINCTIONS

UTILIZE GRID AND HIERARCHY

Page 54: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

HIDE

Hiding means putting a barrier between a user and the feature.

You must carefully choose what to hide so not to inconvenience the user.

HIDE INFREQUENT BUT NECESSARY ITEMS

HIDE CUSTOMIZATIONS, OPTIONS AND SETTINGS.

GIVE CUES AND CLUES

MAKE THINGS EASY TO FIND

Page 55: UX CAPSTONE PROTOTYPINGfaculty.wwu.edu/schadeb/id460/website/images/Prototyping.pdfPROTOTYPING sketching + wireframing and usability THE NEXT STEP After research comes product design

DISPLACE

Put features on a different devicealtogether.

However, if you displace all the features then its hard to guess what the product can actually do.
