    Website Design Guidelines & Their Importance

    Website or Mobile design guidelines is a document that outlines the elements used in the design mockups and prototypes. The design guideline is based on your company’s or application logo. The design guideline importance is that when designing prototypes, all the elements will look the same hence providing quality work. Take for example a button with a specific design, you would want to see the same button with the same design across all pages, not looking different from one page to another.

    “The public is more familiar with bad design than good design. It is, in effect, conditioned to prefer bad design, because that is what it lives with. The new becomes threatening, the old reassuring.” — Paul Rand, graphic designer

    So, what does a design guideline contains? First, it tells you how to use the logo across bright and dark backgrounds. Additionally, it defines the main color pallets used across your design prototypes, the secondary and background color pallets; all inspired and relevant to the logo colors.
