Description:
When it comes to the art and science of great Windows interface design, few people are as knowledgeable as Virginia Howlett. As Director of Visual Interface Design at Microsoft, Virginia Howlett headed the team that designed the visual interfaces for Windows 3.1, Windows NT, and Windows 95. Now, in this illuminating book, she shares everything she knows about designing the most visually functional, usable, and attractive Windows applications possible. Virginia Howlett draws upon several topics, including design aesthetics, human factors, and the psychology of visual perception. She uses these to develop a set of concrete Windows interface design principles that developers and designers can apply in their everyday work. Along the way, Howlett supplies you with all the hands-on information and software development techniques you need to put these concepts into practice in your own interface design - and redesign - efforts. This visually stunning guide practices what it preaches. Its numerous full-color examples of both good and bad interfaces and graphics for the Windows environment are a source of enlightenment and inspiration.
