The most crucial aspect to form a great user experience is having a beautifully crafted user interface. Some small changes to your aesthetics can have the a huge impact or the experience to your users.
If you’re designing on a web application, you’re making decisions about typography, colour and composition. These will effect the branding, style, usability and user experience of you application. You’re already making these decisions but are you aware of their impact. Very subtle use of typography and colour can have enough personality that we don’t need any other visuals. We can give life to a dull block of text and it can make it easier or harder for our user to read. Getting a few simple choices right can make or break the application.

Week 1: Composition
A good composition makes our designs feel uniform, but it also creates visual interest. If we know how to use one, it’s the single thing that can make a design instantly feel more professional while keeping users engaged.

This week we’ll follow a series of practical exercises to improve your intuition when placing elements on a page. Once you have that intuition we can start adding text, images and other UI elements. But let’s make sure we start by mastering our compositions before we involve all that other stuff.

Is this course for me?
Ideally you’ll already have spent some time designing websites and/or applications. Every aspect of the course is created with beginners in mind but you may find you get more out the course if you’ve already created some designs. You’ll also ideally need to know how to use some design software. I recommend Figma, but Adobe XD, Invission Studio, Sketch or some similar software will also be okay.
