Key Takeaways
- SIMPLE RATIOS: Dominate most of our preferences in color, form, layout, & music.
- ASK WHY: The root cause of why something is happening is usually most important.
- STAY OBJECTIVE: Try to avoid doing things because they “look cool.” Have a reason.
- EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED: You can’t design in a vacuum. Previous design and societal cues drive most decisions.
