Guidelines for effective color usage
  • Use color purposefully, not decoratively
  • Maintain sufficient contrast for readability
  • Never use color as the only means of conveying information
  • Limit the number of colors in a single view
  • Ensure colors work in both light and dark modes
  • Consider color blindness and other visual impairments

Visual Design Principles

Consistency

Use consistent visual elements throughout the interface to create a cohesive experience.

Hierarchy

Establish clear visual hierarchy to guide users through the interface and highlight important elements.

Simplicity

Keep visual design simple and focused, removing unnecessary elements that don't serve a purpose.

Accessibility

Ensure visual design is accessible to all users, including those with visual impairments.
