The Design of Everyday Things

So this week I finished the book The Design of Everyday Things by Donald A. Norman.

I learned a lot about basic design in this book. Some of the highlights include;

  • Natural Mapping
  • Constraints and Affordances
  • Mental Models
  • Feedback and Visibility

Bad Design

Good Design

The picture above shows how a design with natural mapping should look. You know how to use the stove by just looking at it.
