There is no standard for good design, perhaps the design just meets people’s psychological needs.

There is no standard for good design,The qualities of interactive designers Articles perhaps the design just meets people’s psychological needs. The point is that in the design process, either using using banner maker online or other tools, you can meet the needs of products, being able to gain respects and pursuing from partners and users, then you're a good designer. At work designers are not be so-called experts nor the folk artists, but they need more professional and effective design methods, and some practical working styles.

Mentally designers should not look at users from the perspective of God, nor they should look at users as God. Don't make everything extreme.

Next I will talk about some inspirations on work, some are valid, while some others are effective, but I believe that these inspirations will be very helpful. For everyone, these all make sense, and you can sort out for yourselves when you are free in your busy life.

Identify which boat you are on board

Is the boat a luxury cruise, or kayaking with less people. Big ships need to be secure and drive slowly, it's hard to turn around. You know that how valuable the project is and how many people are involved in it, then you need to judge wether you need helper( interactive designer), who are truly at the helm, and how much energy you need to spend on it.

 

Do not become a tool

When receiving one project, first try to critically analyze the business demands and core value of this product, rather than plunging into it completely. Many Visual designers are often obsessed with design details, spending a lot of time on an embroidered needle technique, hoping to make flowers on buttons or trying to showcase the most exciting visual effects. As a result the originally defined highlights must be removed due to technical problems. Even the final product is not desired and has to be redesigned.

At this time we need to jump out of the details as soon as possible. Come Back to the beginning to quickly find the solutions.

Quickly provide programme

Take the simple banner design for example. Select a few similar-style banners or screenshots, and make up a simple demo of 2 or 3 visions with free banner maker, so as to enable the customers to decide which style they like as soon as possible. Do not give much choice for Demo in order not to sink in detail again.
