Les principes de la Gestalt appliqués au webdesign (1/2) - La Crèmerie

J’ai toujours entendu dire qu’un bon design de page web se résumait à peu de choses : équilibre, rythme et organisation du contenu. C’est pas faux, mais un peu plus de détail ne ferait pas de mal. Pour aller dans le détail, il faut se pencher légèrement sur la psychologie de la forme, que l’on appelle aussi gestaltisme (le terme qui à lui seul vous fait paraitre intelligent), avec quelques principes simples, assez évidents pour certains, que l’on appelle les principes de la Gestalt.

The Best Airports and Airlines for Tech-Dependent Travelers [INFOGRAPHIC]

Jetsetting from New York to Silicon Valley and everywhere in between helps high-tech travelers gather a wealth of knowledge about life spent in airports and at 35,000 feet. So, if you’ve got a trip coming up, you’ll find this infographic’s insights about the most tech-friendly airports and airlines to be incredibly useful. For longer flights, you need to be completely juiced up beforehand … or have access to outlets onboard. There are 17,000 outlets in the 40 busiest American airports; that may sound like a lot, but it equates to just 5.5 outlets per gate, on average. http://mashable.com/2012/01/12/airport-tech-travel-infographic/

They know how to channel their creative energy, they understand how to work with others, they are effective at presenting their work….” If you are a UX leader or the lead designer on a team, it’s likely that part of your job is helping other designers improve their skills. Fortunately, there is a wide variety of resources on the concepts and methods of experience design, information architecture, user research, and related disciplines that you can leverage in educating other designers on the fundamentals of user-centered design.

Framing the Practice of Information Architecture :: UXmatters

“The practice of information architecture is the effort of organizing and relating information in a way that simplifies how people navigate and use information on the Web.”— DSIA Research Initiative “The reality of getting things done has resulted in a professional environment where the information architect is less important than the practitioner of information architecture (IA).” Over the past two decades, the volatile evolution of Web applications and services has resulted in organizational uncertainty that has kept our understanding and framing of the information architect in constant flux. In the meantime, the reality of getting things done has resulted in a professional environment where the information architect is less important than the practitioner of information architecture (IA).
