Design Principles
The Design System Team agreed on seven design principles which help them with every design decision. The principles are based on research and creditable sources. The new UI Design Language is based on these principles.
The design must be …
Consistent
Make elements with similar function look similar to improve learnability!
Scalable
Always design with edge cases taken into account. Always expect growth!
Defensive
Always anticipate errors and try to make things human-proof! Provide helpful tips instead of user-blaming error messages.
Trustworthy
Adjust offers viable tools for their client’s own success. Keep visual consistency, pay attention to details! All these qualities build trust from the user.
Navigable
Make sure the users always know where they are inside of the application. Guide them, signal their path!
Objective
Always design with a goal in mind, solve actual problems. Rely on insights from data and research as well as established conventions over personal preference!
Accessible
You do not need to assume our clients are visually or physically impaired but mind that good accessibility make our products faster and more pleasant to use for everyone!
