Human-Computer Interaction Design Principles

Creating intuitive, accessible, and delightful user experiences through research-backed design principles and methodologies.

Key HCI Design Principles

These foundational principles guide the creation of human-centered interfaces that feel natural and intuitive.

Visibility Principle

Visibility

Systems should keep users informed about what is happening through appropriate feedback within reasonable time.

Feedback Principle

Feedback

Users should receive immediate and clear feedback on their actions to understand the system's response.

Consistency Principle

Consistency

Similar concepts and operations should use similar elements and be activated in the same way.

Affordance Principle

Affordance

Design elements should visually communicate how they can be used without requiring instructions.

Mapping Principle

Mapping

The relationship between controls and their effects should be naturally mapped and easily understood.

Constraint Principle

Constraint

Limiting possible actions can simplify interaction and prevent errors by making only relevant options available.
