– Wikipedia
“An AFFORDANCE is often taken as a relation between an object or an environment and an organism, that affords the opportunity
for that organism to perform an action. For example, a knob affords twisting, and perhaps pushing, while a cord affords
pulling.”

ARGGGGGGG!
–Walter Gropius (founder of the Bauhaus)
“Our guiding principle was that design is neither an intellectual nor a material affair, but simply an integral part of the stuff of life,
necessary for everyone in a civilized society.”

Information!
FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTIONThere are two ways to interpret the phrase “form follows function”:
Descriptive: beauty results from purity of function; Prescriptive: aesthetic considerations in design should be secondary to functional considerations.
22
BEAUTIFUL THINGS FUNCTION BETTER
23
“Function alone does not drive form.
Function alone doesn’t drive the resultant form.
The form evolves from the holistic forces of the project—audience needs, client desires, ethical obligations, aesthetic inclinations,
material properties, cultural presuppositions, and yes, functional requirements.”

“I’M OBSESSED WITH HOW TO TELL
STORIES THROUGH THE INTERFACE”Alexandre Branchet, UPIAN
DESIGN IS NOT ONLY FORM BUT ALSO FUNCTION
26
USER INTERFACEUser interface design (UI) or user interface engineering is the DESIGN of user interfaces for machines and software, such as
computers, home appliances, mobile devices, and other electronic devices, with the focus on MAXIMIZING THE USER EXPERIENCE.
27
USER EXPERIENCEUser Experience (UX) involves a person's emotions and attitudes about using a particular product, system or service. User experience includes the practical, experiential, affective, meaningful and valuable aspects of human–computer
INTERACTION and product ownership.
28
PRACTICAL DESIGN there is a function, a task the item is expected to perform.
29
FUNCTIONAL DESIGNThese are the elements of functional design, the process of responding to the needs or desires
of the people who will use an item in a way that allows their needs or desires to be met
