The Principles of Graphic Design in User Interfaces
THE PRINCIPLES OF
GRAPHIC DESIGN
I’ve worked as a graphic designer for user interfaces in video games for many years. Because of that, I devised a set of principles that I felt were important. The most important one being Clarity. Thinking about these principles helped me create interfaces that were pretty, understandable, and "invisible" to the gamers. Today I'd like to share my 12 Principles with all of you. Most of them are based on tried and true principles in both the user experience and graphic design worlds. I just brought them together and applied them to video games.
