“Design is a plan for arranging elements in such a way as best to accomplish a particular purpose.”

7 Essential Guidelines For Functional Design

1.    Consider the product’s goal – know the purpose of the product then allow variations
2.    Consider who will be using it – always know who your target audience is and what their problems are
3.    Consider what your audience intends to do with it – though a product has a main goal, each user differs with their intentions
4.    Is it clear how to use it? - clarity is key to functional design
5.    How does your user know it’s working? – adequate feedback to be clear if a task is completed
6.    Is it engaging to your users? – engagement is really the key for satisfied customers
7.    How does it handle mistakes? - good design takes into account the possibility that users make mistakes

“Everything is design. Everything!”

Wherever you may go and whatever you may see, design will always be there. May it be from posters, walls, tables, chairs, mugs, chandeliers, banners, phones, computers, shoes, clothes and the list go on but the mere fact stays that everything is designed. If you want something done for your product, service, brand or business, then the best approach would be to find a designer because they are the ones who design everything that you can see. I, as a designer, focused my craft majorly in logo design and graphic design. I just find it more into what I can and want to do, that even the software I use to create these designs are also akin to my skills.

Math is easy. Design is hard.

You read it right. Math is easy and design is hard. Most people would argue with this quote because they would say that Math is definitely harder but for most cases, these are the exact people who haven’t tried out to design just yet. Like Math, Design needs to be learned in a span of a long time. It takes a lot of focus, skill, patience and ideas. This is where designers come into place. They’re the best at that because they already have the attributes needed to design. Not only do they have the skills but more importantly, they just have their heart and soul into it.

E-Blog 02: "Ang Probinsyano" vs PNP

We recently discussed the dispute between “Ang Probinsyano” and the Philippine National Police. We had to pick out our partners and we had to choose which side we’re on. Well, before picking any side, my partner and I had to first watch the video regarding the said dispute because we have no idea what is happening between them. That may be because we don’t watch the TV series, or the news nor do we care about such matters, frankly speaking. After knowing about it, that’s the only time we were able to pick sides. Individually, we gathered 3 important pieces of evidence that would support our claim. Later on, we discussed it with our partners then compiled our works into a single Powerpoint presentation. Afterwards, the class was divided into two: those which sided with “Ang Probinsyano” and those with the PNP. We had to write in the board all the things that made our claim right and as well, writing those which would make the opposing side wrong. After such, our teacher, being on ...
