User Centered Design is the practise of keeping your end user's needs, wants and limitations at the heart of the design process. Me-Me follows the principles of User Centered Design.

Principles

  • Visibility - Users should be able to tell what they can do at a glance.
  • Accessibility - Users should be able to find the information they are looking for quickly and easily.
  • Legibility - The text must be easy to read.
  • Language - The language must be easy to understand.

While following these principles, designers must always have their audience, business purpose and usage context in mind.
