The Message of Design
A great message from Drawar about the message of design. The main point here is to not design a site that just ‘looks good’ but rather delivers a successful message. This is a short read, but is packed with good advice.
Drawar: The Message of Design
Quote:
Too often the main goal of a designer when working with a site is to make the site look good. While that is important there is plenty of evidence around the web that shows that a beautiful design doesn’t always guarantee success. eBay will probably never win any design awards, but their design does the job of delivering a message to their audience. What fascinates me about Bing is that there is so much emphasis on putting a cool image up that you have to wonder if the real message of being a better way to search gets lost.
