Implement a set of guidelines for measuring, sizing, and spacing UI elements. This system would promote consistency across the product, enhance team communication, and reduce the number of daily decisions for designers, developers, and ITQEs.
Develop a tool to check the acceptable variance for mockup and staging elements, ensuring adherence to the grid (8px/5px steps) and proper defect reporting.
Utilize a 12-column grid to organize content into evenly spaced vertical columns, allowing for efficient division of the layout into halves, thirds, fourths, and sixths.
Clearly define and differentiate between content-first and design-first elements when creating reusable components, accommodating varying content lengths while maintaining design integrity.
Design layouts that are both responsive and adaptive, rearranging elements according to device-specific breakpoints and maintaining elasticity between breakpoints for a seamless user experience across devices.
The implementation of the spatial system, AV Checker Tool, column grid, and differentiation between content-first and design-first elements led to a more consistent and efficient UI design. The adaptive and responsive hybrid approach ensured seamless user experiences across different devices and screen sizes. This comprehensive solution streamlined the design process, enhanced team communication, and ultimately resulted in a better product for end-users.
