Designing a good interface isn't easy. Users demand software that is well-behaved, good-looking, and easy to use. Your clients or managers demand originality and a short time to market. Your UI technology -- Web applications, desktop software, even mobile devices - may give you the tools you need, but little guidance on how to use them well. UI designers over the years have refined the art of interface design, evolving many best practices and reusable ideas. If you learn these, and understand why the best user interfaces work so well, you too can design engaging and usable interfaces with less guesswork and more confidence. "Designing Interfaces" captures those best practices as design patterns - solutions to common design problems, tailored to the situation at hand. Each pattern contains practical advice that you can put to use immediately, plus a variety of examples illustrated in full color. You'll get recommendations, design alternatives, and warnings on when not to use them. Each chapter's introduction describes key design concepts that are often misunderstood, such as affordances, visual hierarchy, navigational distance, and the use of color. These give you a deeper understanding of why the patterns work, and how to apply them with more insight. A book can't design an interface for you - no foolproof design process is given here - but "Designing Interfaces" does give you concrete ideas that you can mix and recombine as you see fit. Experienced designers can use it as a sourcebook of ideas. Novice designers will find a roadmap to the world of interface and interaction design, with enough guidance to start using these patterns immediately.
##UI设计必备工具书
评分 评分##终于读完了英文版!
评分##的确是本词典...
评分 评分##看过了交互设计之路,或者交互设计精髓,然后再来翻这本书,个人觉得还是蛮不错的。 这本书图文并茂,容易上手。同时也可以加深对理论的理解。 没事拿出来翻一翻也行。可惜是在图书馆借的,80RMB,好贵……
评分##这本书的原文和中文我都看了,也比较过。本书的原版,作者遣词用句似乎过于力求准确,导致阅读起来多少有些拗口。Windy在翻译的时候也没有使用符合中文的语言习惯,所以即使是中文版读起来也是很费力的。 相比起来Windy之前翻的《don't make me think》和《交互设计之路》就远...
