How To Become A UI/UX Designer?

 Recently, there has been a boom in the UI/UX designing field. So, if you are planning to enter the field, you should surely go through the following points. 

#1. Understand the phases of UI/UX 

UI/UX design is a creative process comprising different phases – Discover, Define, Develop, Deliver. These phases combinedly are also referred to as Double Diamond. Along with this, basic concepts and principles such as color, contrast, balance, typography, and consistency need to be understood. Further, you also should learn psychological aspects along with technical aspects of design. This will not only enhance your design but also grab the user’s attention.


#2. Be keen on design details 

Knowing the basics of design principles is not enough until you learn to distinguish between good and bad design. You should always be keen to judge a particular design and improvise it for the better. It might be difficult to get something creative out of your mind initially. So, just look at various available designs, research them, and then put your thoughts on them. Meet other designers and go through their work. Make notes and draw pretty designs on a blank canvas based on your “inspirational” designs.


#3. Be updated 

As a UI/UX designer, it is important to stay updated with the latest designs and tools. Make a habit of reading design articles, blogs, and tutorials about new trends that are readily available. Along with theoretical understanding, it is important to try hands-on the latest web design tools such as Adobe XD (interface design and prototyping), Balsamiq (low fidelity wireframing), Figma (collaborative interface design), InVision App (prototyping and collaboration), Marvel App (mockups interactive), and Sketch (interface design).


#4. Get a mentor 

Getting a mentor is one of the easiest ways to excel in the skills of a UI/UX Designer. They will not only give their feedback but also help in increasing the speed of your design level. They will review your work and help you by providing tips and tricks they have learned through their experience. You can put up your questions as well as discuss your ideas with them. It will ultimately help to broaden your creativity level.
