(Source Visualmess.com) When we look at visual design we don’t really know exactly what we want to see but once something that’s visually appealing comes to us something clicks and your left saying “ah that’s good”. Ask yourself what is a clean design? just like i thought you can’t really describe it to me although you have an idea of it in your head you just can’t seem to articulate it well enough. Now one of the pet peeves i have about reading is when the author doesn’t pay attention to detail and ignores the small aspects of writing, I’m not talking about something obvious like a plethora of spelling mistakes. I am talking about Unorganized writing, there is no reason when someone is reading a news article that the information he wants to see is buried underneath a few paragraphs of logisitics no one cares about. Writing in my opinion should be what i like to call “user friendly”. And if you hear me out it might help you communicate better, or at least it will help you communicate better with me. Say you were designing an advertisement and there is a certain amount of information that has to be on the page, would you just put the information there without thinking or would you organize it like a table of contents? Because it would certainly be easier for the reader to find the information that he/she wants if it was well organized. For instance if your writing about a debate one doesn’t necessarily want to know the tradition of debates they would want to know what happened in the debate without reading about things that they are not interested in. Sure their might be people who are fascinated with the history of debates so feel free to put that information in the back of the article for those who would like to read about it. Some notable design flaws/ good methods if used correctly are size of text/ heading, visual appearance, alignment, getting rid of unnecessary text and highlighting text thats more important. hope you enjoyed my article happy writing.
