What is User Interface?

What is User Interface?

In the past weeks, I have been studying User Experience and User Interface Design through Coursera, Research and Skillshare.

I am pretty sure we've all heard discussions about how a great 'UX' of a product, and the poor 'UI' of a website can?make or break your business.

Today let's talk about UI first...

Or User Interface.

What is it in the first place?

When we talk about User Interface. It is the Human-first approach to designing the aesthetic experience of a product.

Application: Digital Products

Focus: Visual touchpoints that allow users to interact with a product

Creates: Combinations of typography, color palettes, buttons, animations and imagery

Results in: Digital products that delight users aesthetically

User Interface (UI) Design focuses on anticipating what users might need to do and ensuring that the interface has elements that are easy to access, understand, and use to facilitate those actions.

UI brings together concepts from interaction design, visual design, and information architecture.

What makes a Good UI Design though?

Without it, users may find a product to be unusable.

Most designers follow a set of user interface design principles to guide their designs and ensure their products are successful.


The most important elements of UI design are:

  • Put?users?in?charge?of?the?interface.
  • Make?it?easy?to?interact?with?a?product.
  • Reduce?your?cognitive?load.
  • Maintain?consistency?in?user?interfaces.
