Day 3: Learning UI/UX Design
👋 Hello, Dev Community!
I'm Prince Chouhan, a B.Tech CSE student with a passion for UI/UX design. Today, I'm excited to share my learnings on UI Design Principles.
🗓️ Day 3 Topic: UI Design Principles
📚 Today's Learning Highlights:
Concept Overview:
UI design principles guide the creation of intuitive, visually appealing, and easy-to-use interfaces. They encompass concepts such as balance, contrast, alignment, hierarchy, consistency, simplicity, feedback, accessibility, usability, and emotional design.Key Takeaways:
-
Balance: Achieve visual stability by distributing elements evenly.
- Symmetrical balance: Equal weight on both sides of a central axis.
- Asymmetrical balance: Unequal elements balanced by visual weight.
-
Contrast: Enhances readability and hierarchy by highlighting differences.
- Contrast in color, size, shape, and texture.
- Use high contrast for important elements, low contrast for secondary ones.
-
Alignment:** Create order and organization by aligning elements.
- Align based on edges or a grid system for consistency.
- Maintain alignment across different screen sizes for responsiveness.
-
Tools & Resources:
- Tool: Figma – Practiced creating balanced and aligned UI elements.
- Resource: UI UX DESIGN COURSE

Practical Application:
- Analyzed a popular website's UI for examples of balance, contrast, and alignment.
- Created a basic mockup in Figma focusing on these principles.
🚀 Future Learning Goals:
Next, I'll explore visual hierarchy, consistency, and simplicity in UI design.
