Unit 6 Reading Response

Skeuomorphic design and flat design each have a place. When combined together they can create a softer look. Users are typically quick to learn how things work through visual queues created by the designer through uniformity, color, size, and shape of elements. Flat design tends to look cleaner and simpler to navigate. The use of white space or open space in design can offer a more relaxed experience. This technique is particularly useful in which large amounts of information is being relayed. It helps the users ability to digest the information in a more comfortable, non-overwhelming way. In cases where a design is tackling a more creative approach, skewmorphic design can be very helpful in immersing the user in an experience more closely related to the overall message.
