  1. Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what

    it looks like… That’s not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works. Steve Jobs
  2. Design isn’t crafting a beautiful, textured button with breathtaking animation.

    It’s figuring out if there's a way to get rid of the button altogether. No matter how beautiful your interface is, it would be better if there were less of it. Edward Tufte
  3. What really makes a piece of design outstanding … If

    this thing did not exist, would the world miss out? Paola Antonelli
  4. If people are made safer, more comfortable, more eager to

    purchase, more efficient — or just plain happier — by contact with the product, then the designer has succeeded. Designing for People Henry Dreyfuss
  5. Indifference towards people and the reality in which they live,

    is actually the one and only cardinal sin in design. Dieter Rams
  6. You’ve got to start with the customer experience and work

    back toward the technology, not the other way around. Steve Jobs
  7. But every design has its day of reckoning. And that

    reckoning is with the people you design for. Julie Zhuo
  8. It would be irresponsible of us not to test our

    designs when so many people count on us to get it right...But data and analytics will never be a substitute for design intuition Margaret Gould Stewart
  9. We tend to assume the problem is with us, and

    not with the products we’re trying to use — When our tools are broken, we feel broken. And when somebody fixes one, we feel a tiny bit more whole. Jonathan Ive
  10. Mobile apps and devices have raised the bar on how

    people expect to interact with computers.
