Background
Excessive pursuit of aesthetic design may result in blocked communication of information and the need for users to expend additional cognitive resources to understand interface elements.
Enhancement Methods
- Follow the natural mapping principle: Ensure that the appearance of UI controls is consistent with their functionality (e.g., clickable elements are clearly highlighted)
- Optimize information density: Show all the information needed to complete core tasks in a single screen, reducing unnecessary white space
- Creating a visual hierarchy: Sort information in descending order of importance by differences in contrast, size, etc.
- Rigorous testing of icon recognition: 5-second comprehension test for each new icon, eliminating icons that require textual explanations
Implementation steps
1. Standardizing the layout using a grid system
2. Testing information readability on real equipment
3. Conduct eye-tracking or usability testing to collect data
4. Reprioritization of elements based on test results
