User Experience

“Design must seduce, shape, and more importantly, evoke an emotional response.”

- April Greiman

Defined

“User Experience” - The international

standard on ergonomics of human system interaction, ISO 9241-210 defines user

experience as "a person's perceptions and responses that result from the use or

anticipated use of a product, system or service.”

Defined

User Interface (UI) vs. User Experience (UX)

“UI is the saddle, the stirrups, and the

reigns. UX is the feeling you get being able to ride the horse, and rope your cattle.

- Dain Miller, webdesigndepot.com

Examples

1.  Ex. UI is the app icon on your smartphone touchscreen. UX is how pleasurable it is for clients to press the icon, their response time, how often they press the icon

2.  Ex. UI is the newsletter system you use to communicate with clients. UX is the client’s emotional response, how often they engage, how long it takes them to reply to you.

of our product design?
