Key Insights from 100 Things Every Designer Needs to Know About People

  • 1. Cognitive Load: People have a limited capacity for processing information, so it’s crucial for designers to minimize cognitive load. Simplifying interfaces and reducing distractions helps users focus on what truly matters.
  • 2. Social Proof: Humans are influenced by the behavior of others, meaning that showcasing user testimonials or popular choices can enhance engagement. Designers can leverage this principle by creating designs that highlight community acceptance and approval.
  • 3. Emotional Design: Emotional responses play a significant role in how users interact with products. Understanding the emotional triggers in your audience can result in more impactful and memorable design experiences.
