Designing for User Experience Poster

I’m a firm believer that “UX” is a verb- not a noun. It’s a process, and I believe that if documented and followed correctly, it’s a process that anyone can have a reasonable amount of success with. As professionals, we need to shout these solutions from the rooftops- not keep them as guarded secrets. To that end, I’ve outlined my personal process when designing for user experience and compiled it as a poster for your office wall.

It’s February Fourteen, A Valentine Wallpaper. For the Second Time Around

February 12, 2009 • 1:41 am, I've posted It’s February Fourteen, A Valentine Wallpaper, over at Ang Pilipino GIMP's blog. And now, I'm reposting this rather old Valentine desktop wallpaper. Though old it's still a timely graphic stuff. A smart phone size version was also added. (it took me one year to create the mobile size wallpaper. lol. ). So go ahead, download this freebie and enjoy.

Happy hearts day everyone.

Our feature for today is the legendary Graphic Designer Mr. Pual Rand. To give you a short intro, Mr. Rand designed famous identities that is still existing these days.

A brief Biography

Paul Rand (born Peretz Rosenbaum, August 15, 1914 – November 26, 1996) was a well-known American graphic designer, best known for his corporate logo designs. Rand was educated at the Pratt Institute (1929-1932), the Parsons School of Design (1932-1933), and the Art Students League (1933-1934). He was one of the originators of the Swiss Style of graphic design. From 1956 to 1969, and beginning again in 1974, Rand taught design at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. Rand was inducted into the New York Art Directors Club Hall of Fame in 1972. He designed many posters and corporate identities, including the logos for IBM, UPS and ABC. Rand died of cancer in 1996.

Grokkin' Design

 
View more presentations from Jon Tan.

Design is 80% science and 20% art. It can sometimes seem that the reverse is true, but understanding a few rules and methods can help demystify the discipline.

This talk dives straight into the science of design with a quick-fire grounding in the techniques that help create good interfaces. From using the golden ratio in layout and Fibonacci numbers in typography, to brand design and art direction, it covers it all in tasty, bite-size pieces that will retain their flavor long after the session is done.
