Taking inspiration - OUGD504


Above is the old layout and design of the instagram app. Although not much colour is used there is still a theme running throughout.


The new design (above) uses only black and white for the interface and saves the colour for the users own images. This helps to focus solely on the content and not be distracted from the surrounding design, you become completely immersed by the images rather than being influenced by other themes around. 


Netflix is a brilliant starting point for many user interface designs as it strongly shows off all the content, helps you browse with ease and suggests content you may enjoy based on your previous selections. On a personal level my grandad is even able to use this interface once he has found it from his tv menu and he is near to a technophobe. The large icons showing you what you have selected make it easy to navigate on all platforms.
