UI/UX Design

Colors and emotions are intrinsically connected. Picture this: you’re outside, the sun is out, and you’re standing on vibrant green grass next to a blue lake, underneath a clear sky. How does it make you feel? Perhaps more relaxed and uplifted. Now, what if the sky suddenly turned red, the grass was purple, and the lake turned black? Our guess is the feeling wouldn’t be so relaxing! Color and emotion go hand in hand, and the meanings we assign to those colors are all learned and developed over time. We wanted to learn more about people’s perceptions of color, so […]

UI & UX User Interface (UI) and User Experience (UX) are two interlaced relations mixed quite frequently. However, there is a fairly substantial difference from each other. User Experience (UX) User experience (UX) is intensive on HCI (human-computer interaction) variables and the functional flow of the application overall. It depends upon the human-computer interaction means how a human interacts with the system. The User Experience depends on the User’s profound arrangement, restrictions, requirements, capacities, and qualities. It assists the User with gathering the board of the undertaking. UX is a best practice to advance the nature of User cooperation with […]

If you are a product designer or User Experience Designer then maybe you’ve probably heard the term grid system. In this article, I will discuss about using the most commonly used 8-point Layout Grid Systems. Consistent and scalable spacing helps both the designer and developer to work much faster on a project. Why use 8 point Grid system? Website, apps, dashboard, UI, etc. there is a variety of screen sizes. Pixel densities have continued to increase making the work of asset generation more complicated for designers. Utilizing numbers like 8 to size and space elements makes scaling for a wide variety of […]

How can a design tool work better for developers? It’s a question we’ve been asking ourselves and our community. Today, we’re excited to introduce Dev Mode, a new workspace in Figma that’s designed to get developers what they need, when they need it, harnessing the tools they use every day. Figma was born on the web—an unconventional start to a design tool, but one we felt product design desperately needed. With a single link, designers could collaborate on in-progress work, sharing early explorations, rather than safeguarding designs until they felt “polished.” As more and more designers embraced Figma and this multiplayer way […]

Over the last couple of years, one feature emerged as our top user request: dark mode. Designers were tired of being assailed with a bright screen when working on Figma files late into the night, and studies have shown that people with visual impairments find dark mode more legible than light mode. (Visual contrasts are a core tenet of the W3C Accessibility Guidelines [WCAG] 3.0 standards, and we wanted to make sure our dark mode efforts satisfied those requirements.) That meant that delivering dark mode for us was more than just answering a user request—it mapped back to Figma’s core mission of making design accessible to all. […]
