Ask HN: Where and how to "learn" UI design
Hello,
what's the best thing I could do to deeply dive into UI design? I live in Italy. Other than Internet blog etc that talks about it, is there any "school" or course I could follow?
Any suggestion will be very appreciated!
Thanks,
Filippo
- rdwallis 14y agoI don't know about courses but I read The Design of Everyday Things by Donald Norman more than 10 years ago and it profoundly changed my life. Obviously it doesn't only deal with UI design but I really recommend it if you're looking for a place to jump off from. Be warned, once you read it you'll find yourself becoming extraordinarily annoyed by certain types of doors. http://www.amazon.com/Design-Everyday-Things-Donald-Norman/dp/0465067107 http://www.amazon.com/Design-Everyday-Things-Donald-Norman/d...

- Sargis 14y agoA little off-topic: Asking how to learn design seems to be common here, yet no one here has taken the time to seize this opportunity and actually build something that aids developers to learn how to design for the web.
