While visual representation is often listed as the second dimension of interaction design (the others being words, space, time, and behavior), in many ways it is the first.<\/p>\n
As visual mediums, sites and apps communicate primarily in visuals, and even written language must be presented carefully through typography choices, sizing, alignment etc. Perhaps even more important, as sight-based creatures, humans are accustomed to making split-second decisions on appearance alone. These instantaneous responses are deeply linked with emotions, and so your interface\u2019s look immediately affects how your user feels about the site.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
