For a while I am thinking about various types of design. Do they have anything in common or are they really different? Certain adventures I have been to may indicate that there is just one MetaDesign which is then applied to different target audience, different technology, etc. Other events I've been to ensure me that there are hard to overcome differences. I want this page to hold thoughts that will reveal the truth: Is there MetaDesign or not?
For the API architects out there I recommend http://architypes.net/ it is really entertaining read. Not always mappable to our field, but interesting.
For those who doubt there can be any kind of MetaDesign at all I'd like to share following experience. Once I say slide with guidelines of good UI design written by our HIE lead. I have stolen them and since then I am using them to describe rules of good API design. The match is perfect. So yes, user interface and API design has to have something in common.
To Be Continued
Tomorrow I am going to visit an architect who I asked to design furniture in my house, so stay tuned. I will have fresh observations to share...
Share!
