Design Success and Failure in Relation to Syntactical Guidelines


The above is an example of Good Design that successfully employs appropriate syntactical guidelines. The guidelines employed here are balance, symmetry, and harmony. This is appropriate for the design goal because it is easy to use web interface.


The above is an example of bad design. The interface is unbalanced in a bad way, and is in no way harmonious. As for its purpose as a website interface, it is cluttered an confusing, and utterly disregards all existing syntactical guidelines.
