Designed For A Change Article PublishedDuring the development of a software product we all make numerous design decisions. Some decisions are done in early stages of development, while analyzing the requirements and gathering the overall architecture of the product. Other design decisions are done during the lower-level design. Finally, even during the implementation of the a single component, we are often in position to weight several design options against each other.
In the following discussion we will examine one of the common design aspects, which is the source of numerous design dilemmas: should we design the product such that it will be ready for a future change (in the requirements, in technology etc.), or should we settle for a straight forward implementation? When is our product “sufficiently-designed” and when is it “over-designed”? In other words, how can we find the golden path when it comes to designing a software system to be ready for future changes?

Now, if you are a serious online entrepreneur and want to have a website that sends the right message to the visitors, you must know that there are some web design techniques simply inappropriate for a business website.

Start with the assumption that you cannot predict the access needs of your audience.This weeks tip: start with the assumption that you cannot predict the access needs of your audience. For example, a person with Dyslexia may need a particular combination of text and background colours to comfortably read text on a web page. You could contact a person with this particular impairment and ask them about their preferred colours; but do all people with Dyslexia have the same access needs? Unfortunately ? from a web designers point of view ? the answer is no.A better approach is to design pages so that the presentation of content can be changed by the end user; in the case of the above example, ensure that each person can change the colours to suit their own needs (e.g., via browser preferences or a style switcher). This approach can be applied to all presentation aspects, whether it be text size, layout, or the choice to leave graphics on or off.

Design Comes in ThreesThough the word design gets used to describe lots of things (visual stylings, system architectures, interactivity, etc.), I’ve always considered it to be three things:
- A profession
- A problem-solving methodology
- Communication
In particular, a lot of recent articles on Functioning Form have focused on the third point –design is communication- especially as it relates to the strategic value of design.
- It’s Simple. Design Communicates.
- Iterative Holistic Communication
- Defining the Problem
So naturally I found it interesting that when was asked to define design in one sentence each of the panelists in
Good Design vs. Great Design emphasized communication:
- Cameron Moll: Design is about communication but cannot exist without a medium of some sort.
- Veerle Pieters: Design is away of communicating emotions. It expresses feelings so its design.
- Jon Hicks: Debate how ugly design or no design wins it misses the point that design is about communication.
Also of note was
Cameron Moll’s comment that “the feedback I've been privy to seems to indicate the developers enjoyed [the panel], while the designers felt it was a bit too Graphic Design 101.”
On a related (only by threes) note, BJ Fogg pinged me about updating a link to
his book on
User Experience Comes in Threes. Which made me recall a few Venn diagrams I’ve encountered since the original post.
First up is Diego Rodriguez’s considerations for a great user experience from
Design 2.0 in San Francisco:
- Desirability (human factors)
- Viability (business factors)
- Feasibility (technical factors)
Next is Dirk Knemeyer’s anatomy of a product from the
Future of Digital Product Design (PDF):
- Business
- Technology
- People
Lastly, to tie it all back to design as communication is
my list of three things an interface design should communicate to customers/users:
- By addressing the question “What is this?” we communicate usefulness.
- By addressing “How do I use it?” we communicate usability.
- By addressing “Why should I care?” we communicate desirability.
