UX design is not UI design.
Hi there, it’s Nandi! 👋
I hope you’re having a fabulous sunny day!
In this week’s newsletter, we will discuss some key differences between UI and UX design.
Let’s get into it! 👇
UI is how it looks.
UI deals with traditional concepts like visual design elements such as colors and typography.
UX is how it feels.
UX is the interaction and experience users have with a company’s products and services.
UI creates screens.
UI tends to be the specifics of screens, focusing on labels, visual style, guidelines, and structure.
UX justifies screens.
UX is articulating the user’s journey and motivations, justifying why things are in the UI.
UI is the bridge.
UI is the bridge that gets us to the other side of where we’re wanting
to go.
UX is the destination.
UX is a feeling we get when we get to the other side when the bridge is well-built.
UI is the result of UX.
The kind of experience we want to give to the user will be given by the user interface.
UX is the thought behind UI.
Why does this screen look like this? Because it gives a certain experience to the user.
UI is more tangible.
UI designers are focusing on areas like information design, motion design, and brand.
UX is rather conceptual.

UI is the house.
The house is built based on the blueprint. The same happens here. UI designs made based on UX research.
UX is the blueprint.
UX creates a blueprint that defines the user's journey and experience throughout the product.
UI is how.
How to design this button? How to create an easy-to-understand user interface?
UX is why.
Why do we need this option? Why should the user see
this message?
