Mostly good advice, particularly regarding the use of visuals. But this is flat-out wrong:
> The TUE CLOSED is the most dominant element - the info that is least important and most negative is the focal point.
This is among the most important information. Travelling to a museum during - what are normally - peak operating hours only to learn that it is closed on that day of the week is a far worse UX than any possible formatting of operating hours.
- brokencode 5y agoIt only really needs to be so emphasized there because of the format of the other days, where multiple were grouped together. So you might misread that and think the museum is open. The author's suggestion of listing out every day individually makes it clear even with the closed day is less visually heavy, because the diagram is simply easier to read.
- dlkf 5y agoI agree with everything you say, and I agree that the proposed revision in that section is a lot better than the original. I just disagree with the claim that the fact that they're closed on Tuesdays is unimportant. It's extremely important, and any good design should communicate this unambiguously.
