If you're designing for everybody, you end up with something that is second best for each one of them. 😳
In our new course "Design for Thought and Emotion," Human-Computer Interaction professor Alan Dix reminds us that designing a product that's good enough for everyone is good enough for no one. When it comes to design, aiming for universality often results in mediocrity.
When you're designing a product, think about the target audience and who will use it. For example, if you're creating an office product, your focus should be on developing something indispensable for all employees—a solution that addresses genuine necessities rather than mere desires.
On the other hand, when you design a product for individuals, you'll end up with a peak product. By tailoring a peak experience to a specific niche, you captivate that audience, enabling deep resonance. Skillfully capturing and understanding that niche is essential for your product to stand out. 🌟

Creating an interactive user experience goes beyond functionality. Designers should also dive deep into human cognition and emotion. 💫
Designers need to craft immersive and personalized experiences for users that resonate with them on a deeper level. They should embrace the complexity and diversity of human thinking. By doing so, they'll be able to understand human emotion and how these emotions affect their interactions with different designs.
In our new course "Design for Thought and Emotion", the well-respected author and professor of Human-Computer Interaction, Alan Dix, will give valuable insights into the basics of thought and emotion. He will also touch on how these factors influence us as designers of interactive systems.
In this course, you'll learn:
✅ Thinking and action.
✅ Emotions in technology.
✅ Theories of emotion, motivation, and experience.
✅ Hierarchy of needs.
... And much more!

Colors are powerful tools that every designer should utilize effectively. They can be used to persuade users to perform a certain action, express an emotion, or communicate with the users.
🔎 Humans respond to colors in three different ways:
1️⃣ Biological
Biological reactions to colors refer to the way we were internally programmed to think about colors. We all collectively respond to colors in a certain way. For example, when we think of the color red, we might think of fear.
2️⃣ Cultural
Each culture associates with colors in different ways. In the East, yellow is considered many people's favorite color. On the other hand, yellow is one the least favorite colors in the West.
3️⃣ Personal
Our personal relationship with colors differs from one individual to another. One person could associate the color pink with happiness, while another might associate it with negative feelings. It depends on each individual's personal association and experience with the color.
Designers should do their research and know which colors to use depending on the context. We've broken down some of the most common association and meanings of colors. 🎨

Pop-ups can be a useful tool in UX and UI design to grab user attention and convey important information, such as notifications, error messages, or prompts for user action. They can also be used for marketing purposes, such as offering discounts or encouraging users to subscribe to a newsletter. However, care must be taken to ensure that pop-ups are used appropriately and do not interfere with the user's experience or disrupt their flow.
What's your take on pop-ups? Do you love 'em or hate 'em? Let us know, and we'll share the results!
