Designers allow data to inform and constrain their work. Their decisions are wholly informed; implementation details carefully considered; edge cases solved. They build empathy for how their users will actually experience things in a variety of contexts.

Trying to obtain data is also one step toward practicality. Realistic data that you can obtain eventually will be the data shown on screen.

We have a lot of assumptions in the process of creating wireframes and mockups for websites & apps. As wireframes & mock-ups are not dynamic, it is easy to aware various scenarios when dummy content or placeholders are used.

When a drop-down menu could result in nuclear war in Hawaii, we need to learn about designing friction.

// Frictions allow for thinking and reduce the risk of mistakes: because of the effort necessary to overcome the friction, the decision-making process has to pause for a while, allowing people to stop and analyze. //

https://babich-biz.cdn.ampproject.org/c/babich.biz/friction-in-design/amp/

Friction raises negative thoughts in most designer’s minds. When you ask designers about friction, most of them will tell you that friction damages a UX because it slows down interactions, reduces conversions, and impedes progress. Today frictionless design is the new business goal. Designers seem...

The Summer vacation is about to end, and we're going to say goodbye to our intern Joni from UC Berkeley. She shared her work in Playa for the past two months. Check it out!

大家或許不知道,我們最近製作的 Water For Free 撲水其實是一個 hybrid app 來的。Hybrid app 的意思即是跨平台不使用原生程式語言 (Swift, Java 等) 開發的應用程式,簡單點來說是使用製作網頁的方法去開發一個 App (HTML5, PHP)。

文中分享了我們製作 hybrid app 的過程和經驗,應用甚至獲 App Store 的青睞,獲選每周精選應用。對不少有意製作 app 的中小企來說,預算不大,新技術讓開發成本調低,已經是很好的理由去把商業計劃實行。

Recently, we helped one of our clients to develop a mobile app called 撲水 Water For Free. 撲水 Water For Free collects all the locations of water fountains throughout Hong Kong to help users to refill their water bottles while on the go. Let’s work together to reduce the millions of beverage bottles en...
