Interface Design

Online, as far as customers are concerned, the interface is the company: its usability defines your brand experience.

In interface design, the prime requirement is to translate customers' needs into self-explanatory features. The less demand on the user part, the fastest goals are accomplished, and the more satisfying the experience is.

Complying with established usability and graphic design guidelines, ergonomica creates interfaces that:

• Take advantage of conventions that contribute to speed up the interface usage and perception
• Clearly layout elements to enhance legibility and minimise noise
• Show a consistent usage of elements, in respect of their function, labelling, location and visual characteristics
• Define visual hierarchy to optimise page scanning
• Indicate each page location in relation to the site structure
• Breakdown navigation elements and processes in groups and steps that reduce cognitive and memory load
• Provide intelligible labels and system messages
• Optimise download time by using graphics only when relevant

Each interface is created in conformity with ergonomica usability criteria that are updated whenever new findings on Human-Computer-Interaction (HCI) are made available to the design community.
