How do you apply color in mobile UI design projects? Here's a little tip, the 60-30-10 color rule(it's more like a guideline) will help you to get a good start to applying color in a mature and seamless way... Remember to Subscribe goo.gl/6vCw64
How can you use color inside of your mobile UI design projects to come out looking really mature and really seamless and really well thought out and not obnoxious and loud? And really the worst thing that it could be is distracting. Well, you might want to use a little rule or guideline called the 60 30 ten rule, which is going to help you to understand how to use color, how to implement color, and when to break that rule. We're going to talk all about that coming up next.

  • As a developer, after watching this video, I am still confident that: a) designers are bad at math; b) I am bad at design, so will continue hiring designers for the design part.

    • Does anyone have an aversion to ux’s chosen vocabulary such as “heuristics” that actually are non-inclusive and alienates more people around what ux is? Always thought “learning by doing” or “using it” made more sense than the verbose heuristics.

  • I'm mostly a backend developer so this was pretty confusing when seeing a 4th color for the font and sometimes other colors being added. It's what I dislike about design, there are no absolutes or precise standards it needs a lot of intuition, or taste, that I don't have.

    • Neutral colors are used on backgrounds and default text. Brand color can be used to highlight information, like tags, or a background of a card with important information, also can be used for buttons of lesser importance. The action color should be only on the most important and actionable elements, always clickable. Use the colors to represent functionality and hierarchy first and only after that worry about 60/30/10 rule. If you do it right, your design will naturaly fall somewhere into the ratio.

    • I have to disagree, I’ve been full stack for around 5y now and can definitely say that I previously thought designing was all about having a “keen eye” or whatever but actually IME design is also just a science like anything else, there are systems you can keep in mind that will end up with a good looking UI every time I think being creative and having the inspiration to make things in a certain way can be down to that “keen eye” thing, but implementing a UI that’s been done thousands of times has some very clear patterns you can follow

  • That's actually good for using in Apps or sites that doesn't require buttons' hierarchy (eg: call to action vs inline actions vs confirms, excludes, etc) - after all, if you use all the same color for everything, you end up breaking hierarchy for what you *need* to highlight the most or specifically :) Good content bro.

  • Will you do any videos regarding accessibility and ADA or WCAG standards? It definitely affects the use of colors. There are plenty color combos that comply to the standards - but aren’t always accessible to those with visual impairments when used as a standalone element. 3rd party plugins are not fool proof. Im genuinely interested in how you work within these standards while also producing designs that are creative and visually appealing…it’s something I’ve struggled with since the digital world has become hyper-focused on the issue! (Rightly so). Would love to hear how you approach these challenges as they emerge…
