My Philosophy of Designing Anything

If the users are not going to make use of a certain feature, and if it does not provide any aesthetic value, then it shouldn't be included as a fill component.

That is,

  • An un-noticeable detail in a sculpture or a painting would be valid.
  • Similarly, an un-noticeable detail in a component's aesthetic design would be valid.
  • This is the UI design part.

  • But additional details like listing enterprise offerings in a consumer oriented network service would be invalid.

  • Similarly, providing details which a person is less likely to be interested in, or placing potentially interesting details in a place that a person is less likely to check out would be invalid too.
  • This is the UX design part.
