The 10 principles of Good Design Part 2

Last time I left you on a big cliffhanger with 3 out of 10 principles that will turn you into the reincarnated Michaelangelo,

I don’t have a lot of time today so let’s make this one a short and quick, straight to the point blog about 3 other principles you need to implement to your creations for them to be considered good design.

Your design speaks for itself

Whether it is a product or a house you’re designing, It has to evocate the power to explain for itself. The most useful products and the most agreeable spaces are the ones that we intuitively understand. There is no worse feeling than getting something you really wanted just for it to take hours to figure out. This can go from products to spaces.

The modern man has too many distractions and complications in his daily routine. Your design must be done in a way that doesn’t disrupt the user’s day more than it already is. adaptation must be seamless and natural.

A very concrete example in architecture is a remodeling of a school library. The flow of the library can be improved by implementing remodeling. However, if the flow of the place changes dramatically, it will suffer a drop of regular users because it breaks the pre-established routine the users had.

This learning period can vary to a point where the remodeling will be too disruptive to users altogether and no adjustment period is even presented.

Design Disappears.

Bad design is intrusive.

Good design is appreciated

Great design is invisible.

Bad design gets in the way of everything. A badly designed space will get you raddled up because it causes you to put more effort in coexisting in it. Think of a badly designed kitchen.

God forbid you and your spouse are both cooking in a badly designed kitchen. it will get you to fight. Guaranteed.

A greatly designed kitchen will make your work so well you won’t even notice. Design that is well thought out makes you forget about it.

This blog focuses mainly on making you realize how important it is for good design to be natural to the human experience. Whether it's an interior or a product, the importance of ease to use should be in every designer’s forefront thought.
