Beauty + Usability = Both

          When people start to think , there always have a question. Beauty versus usability , how do you thing about it. Is beauty more important than usability ? Can it works together? Visual imagery play an important role in this world due to beauty normally give better first impression to people and people tend to look for it in every sector of job.Human, always look things on appearance and easy attract by aesthetic things, no matters during ancient time or 20th century. How aesthetic object can attract human ?When people look at an object, outcome is the first thing they will focus on even from a far distance. Things with a ‘humble’ cover have a large change of remaining unnoticed or even knowingly ignored. So Aesthetic outcome can be also describe as a ‘ harlo effect’ and we always succumb to the halo effect as well.

          Beside that, a dominant human do not agree beauty thing work better. According to my article I found that Jacob Neilsen argued that users don’t care about design for design’s sake; they just want to get in and get out.The dominant attitude at the time held that usability ruled above all else. Aesthetics were secondary to getting shit done. Seriously, maybe we should not judge a book by its cover. Let’s say if you have a object with a aesthetic outcome, does it affect the object to perceived usability? Example, one of my friend said that ‘ if there have 5 presentation board surely you will go to the most attractive one.’ I agreed with that , beauty do function. If the presentation board with a leak or wrongly information will you still pay attention on it? Low usability make us dissapointed and that frustration show up in our rating of aesthetic even the designer did a good job. Is its possible to work better if beauty and usability works together?

          Based on my article, the point i choose to support my point of view is ‘BEAUTY + USABILTY = BOTH’ written by Matt Stempeck. There is a relationship between beauty and usability. Aesthetics always bring positive mind to people as soon as they saw it and it always tend to give people think that aesthetics brings along usability together. But that is not the reality, in real life, aesthetics seems happen to bring out weak usability and that is why both aesthetics and usability always get indirect proportional relationship. Beauty and usability are intertwined. People are smart , we don’t lose our judgement capabilities just because an interface is beautiful. They don’t even want to buy thing in unperfect . .

          As a conclusion,beauty and usability must work together. Human desired to have both beauty and usability in a product, and known as a good design. A good design make our life better.
