Tym razem wchodzimy w świat designu z energią godną samego Tesli – bo dobre projektowanie to nie magia, tylko dobrze przewodząca logika.
At one time, Inglot decided to expand its business to the Saudi Arabian market, a very specific market. The Polish brand opened its stores there, designed according to European standards and... it turned out that they do not meet Arab standards. There is simply a completely different model of shopping — in Europe, a woman enters the Inglota store who happens to have a free afternoon and wants to relax, wants to have a moment for herself, wants to go crazy while shopping. She is served by one forwarder who helps her to meet her needs. Meanwhile, in Saudi Arabia, a woman takes several of her female colleagues shopping, who advise her on the choice, so that not one customer enters the Inglot salon, but five. Therefore, more space and more staff are needed. In addition, cultural and religious considerations play a key role, because a woman in a burqa cannot paint herself in public. So Inglot had to prepare special cabins in which there is such an opportunity. However, everything turned out already after entering the market. Therefore, it turned out that Inglot did not carry out research and analysis very carefully - and this is the most important point of the program, because if there is to be a show, then the artist must prepare for it and know in front of which audience he is performing. Also through the internet.
We usually use one of our favorite browsers — unless we need to use an alternative one. Apart from browser preferences, our store must present itself well in each of them, without forgetting the mobile, that is, multichannel. And at this point, it is worth opening a box with tools that, as it were, will be able to perform a kind of analysis of the site on their own.
The youth of today! Nothing, just sitting in front of that computer or with their nose in that smartphone, like hunched moles. And they have everything on the tray, they don't want it. This is how it looks from the perspective of a grandmother on the bench in front of the block. Meanwhile, the world has always been driven by the ideas and energy of the young. Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook in college — in his dorm room. He later became one of the youngest billionaires in the world.
Nobody likes to wait. And we wait every day — for something; for someone; in a queue that, as you know, moves slower than the queue next to it; for a website to load. If something, someone and our queue usually cannot be accelerated, the website can already be optimized. And where and where, but on the Internet we are just getting impatient!
In May in the tram, in the subway and in a sweater. Wherever we are, our smartphone is with us. Our friend, friend, love, confidant, who, like Sam from “The Lord of the Rings”, faithfully follows his Frodo, carrying his manatees. It combines our applications and our connection to the Internet, so that even in complete seclusion we are not helpless and left to our own devices. Unless there's no coverage. Then we are. But even then we can use the mobile application — admittedly probably without some of the functions, but nevertheless. Well, responsive website or app — that's the question!
Do you remember going to a supermarket in 2000? Shopping list written on a small note in your pocket, rolled up like a ticket in public transport or folded into an even square (depending on the mood). It had everything my family could tell us. The rest was in our hands - after all, no one will call a cell phone that is not there. In the other pocket, a wallet with cash and on the road, where the developing infrastructure did not allow to bypass the cherished American restaurant from under the yellow “M” sign. Finally, the supermarket. Such a large barrack dotted with colorful brands in those days was really something (in 2000 the first hundred supermarkets in Poland touched down). The legendary Frugo and the Lift drink reigned on the grocery shelves, and Dosia powder “entered all white.” Everything in one place, everything seemed cheaper than at Mrs. Krysa around the corner, everything smelled of modernity.
It has long been known that a person eats with his eyes. Therefore, an interesting experiment was once organized, in which a group of gluttonous people were presented with jelly beans of different colors. The daredevils tried them one by one and without fail judged what taste they had in their mouths. In the second round, the same colors of bears were left, but their flavors were changed - red ate apples, yellow tasted strawberries, and green invaded lemon. This time no one hit - the eyes ate, the taste buds ignored.
Generation Y has ushered the world into a new era — because of the Internet, because of the iPhone, because of Facebook. But not about them today, but about those who entered this world straight from diapers. About those who in their youth no longer jumped off the estate beater and marched home to the rhythm of “Gangsta's Paradise” to fire up a tin PC, but instead grew up together with technology and the Internet, like siblings who get along great together. Generation Z — people born after 95 — grew up with the development of websites and thanks to this suckling into the fast-paced internet, it is now a natural place for them.
The marching cats are playing. Forks and knives pounce on hungry melodies. Fingers tap on the top of an empty table. And all the rumbling bellies — they wait. Where's that pizza delivery guy? Anybody. As for Mr. Sandwich—where are the suppliers? The real ones... Eagles, falcons, heroes... Where's the food?
For 3 years we have been sending to more than 6000 readers an overview of the most interesting articles from the UX world
We welcome Laboratory Diagnostics Day with a portion of assessments, analyzes and statistics. Accessibility guidelines discussed in the context of machine learning algorithms and SEO principles have come under scrutiny today. In the package we also have advice on how to create a solid foundation for the project and how to use mentoring. This is complemented by the results of a study that sheds light on how the work of graphic designers is perceived.
More than 30 years since the creation of the first website, many issues related to the functioning of the World Wide Web need to be rethought and redefined, allowing designers to develop their creativity. In this context, you may be interested in comments on the problems of users of the global network, a pragmatic approach to carrying out projects and drawing inspiration from other people's ideas. There were also ideas for filling mockups with sample texts or adding attractive examples of creative work to your portfolio. Happy International Hummus Day!
Today is Intergenerational Solidarity Day, so get your grandparents, parents or kids to read. And to choose from accessible texts on neuroscience in design, examples of the use of deepfake technique and regaining control over the digital world. You can also listen to lectures on human nature, and UX/UI designers have the opportunity to comment on their work experience in a survey.
On World Art Day, we invite you to the text gallery, where you will find, among others, articles on speculative and convergent design and advice on creating environmentally friendly websites. There will also be inspiration from typography creators, reflections on the correct layout of the website and comments on providing constructive feedback.
On the occasion of International Bird Day, we check out what the Internet sparrows have been tweeting about recently. In addition to articles for which the starting point was a high-profile auction of graphics sold for 69 million dollars, you will find texts about increasing the availability of published content, heuristic analysis and color selection. There was also a corner of inspiration in today's roundup — take a break from following tweets and take a look at Instagram.
On the occasion of the European Brain Day, we start with a solid dose of reflection on good and bad design practices. To stimulate gray cells, we also propose texts about interfaces of mobile devices, algorithms for evaluating UX and ways to successfully debut a digital product. There will also be advice for graphic and UX designers. For fans of puzzles in the graphics, we have hidden one more of the holidays falling today - have fun!
