What are the design norms we need to break free from?
- dkrich 15y agoI think it largely depends on the product and audience you hope to attract. But for starters, I would like to see fewer sites with a large, bold, Helvetica font against a plain background with an intro that says something vague about what the business does. Then the large "Sign Up Now For Free" button with rounded corners that slightly illuminates when you mouse over it. Look, I'm not shitting on other people's work. Building something original is tough, but I do think that clever design is one of the best ways a new service can set itself apart from the rest, and I think that it is an opportunity that is often missed.
