EDIT: Telegram is unstable so I made a discord channel for us instead where I can share UX/UI tips, potential job connections, frontend knowledge and talk to all you guys! I’d love to get to know all of you and become friends :) discord.gg/psNSvK4zsk
This channel must be a content farm. The amount of times a sentence is repeated makes me think ChatGPT wrote it, and then someone from fiverrr edited the video.
Furthermore, what's to say any of the topics and techniques mentioned in this video are unique solely to Swedish websites alone? Well written, well edited, cohesive, yes, but no substance
As a Swedish designer that read tons of research papers about HCI I would say this is basic concepts and not specific for Swedish designers. What we red at uni for ex (a Swedish university) is mostly from the states. You can't mean that designers in other countries don't design with these concepts in mind? 😅
She likes Sweden, which is fair enough, nothing wrong with Sweden, as a Dane I do visit it once in a while, but she does make it sound like Sweden is way ahead in anything web design of anyone else, which is not really true. I mean, it could be true that there are things which swedish designers are in general a little better at doing than others, but then there will also be things that other designers are better than, than swedish designers. A more honest approach is probably that "it depends", because all designers have their forces and weaknesses. If she wants to substantiate her claims, she needs to provide actual studies. No problem anyways, I like Sweden too.
True.. ironically, how most of the design philosophy nowadays was similar to how click-bait ads looked like back then, simple, clean and few decisions to make. Like those fake "Download now" buttons. That's why nowadays, if it's too clean and obvious, I have to check if it was an ad lol. Sometimes they also alternate the position of "CANCEL" buttons with buy buttons to maximize accidental clicking.
I don't really see how this is specific to Sweden only. Aren't you just mentioning how standard/"clean" UI is being created, and good practices when doing so. And then finding examples of these practices being used in Sweden, just like any other country. I'm sure many websites created in Sweden aren't "clean", and the developers do not follow these standards. Also doing a quick Google, about the country with the best web design, will give a wide variety of answers because there isn't really one.
I don't know who you are, first time seeing this channel, just some feedback. For content like this I think you need to show actual examples when you're talking about those things, abstract emojis, gifs and images don't mean anything and anyone can interpret it in any way
I don't think so. The video has a lot of examples and demonstrations. Some things she says and uses gif and animations because the concept were already shown, thus, only reasoning is needed. Overstimulation is literally the concept that this video talks against, why would you expect an overstimulated script with pictures for every word?
2:07 not every country. The German government thinks it is enough to pay a company once to build some stuff. But there are also a lot of German regulations and rules a contractor would have to play by. This results in almost every governmental app looking like shit, ignoring modern technologies and having very few companies even voluntarily applying for the job.
@@redesignuxuito not leave you or other readers misinformed by my one sided comment before: there are a few government sites and apps with good UX, but the majority focuses on being functional and accessible. While Germany has a lot of digital catch up to do, I really like how most sites offer at least 4 language options for inclusivity.
Work&Co is actually a Global Design Company, founded by Brazilians and Americans, with offices around the globe and with designers who know how to adapt all styles of design. :)
Claiming that Swedish web designs are the best in the world seems more like an opinion than a fact. I'm a software engineer and I've never heard of Swedish design and its excellent design skills. And how can a company be the image of a country? IKEA design is fantastic, okay. But have you ever been to an ikea? It looks like a maze and irritates people. So does this mean that Sweden is the best at creating stores that irritate consumers? Your statement makes no sense. I understand that you want a video title that attracts people, but I was expecting a certain video and ended up watching something else.
I have to agree with many of the comments, the video concept is good and could be improved a lot. Spotify UX decisions are actually questionable, the IKEA app is 2x inferior to the desktop web because the huge lack of finding products by their release date, sale or category. Most IKEA items are sorted into collections and as a new buyer its a living hell to navigate your "wow didn't know this cabinet actually existed" place. The Swedbank, Telia and Tele 2 ( As I am from Estonia which these all companies are also based at and most popular), the screens shown all of them were like from 4-8 years ago, all of their websites and apps have improved a ton since then and why wasn't their latest screens just shown? Also as an European the wording of "best in the world" is questionable as each continent has a vastly different understanding of what is best for them. For example Asian culture has a very different way of consuming information and finding what is the "best" in their context. I would definitely start and try to compare different shopping apps around the world to see how much they use different new technologies. I for example am amazed by Chinese markets way to combining a lot of different apps into one seamless experience. Today you need tons of different useless brand apps to get their discounts otherwise you are "losing out". In Estonia the store Maxima for example, when you open it there is a one click button to start your shopping in the store. It recognizes your location where you are and you don't have to do anything else, then when you are in the store you scan the products by their barcode. When you buy alcohol the app directly asks you to confirm your age using our countries Smart ID system. When you get to the checkout its just again one button to pay for your items which you don't even have to put on a scale or anything, have them in your plastic or paper bag and pay from your phone. No other prompts or questions asked. That's what I call ease of use
It depends. The title "Best in the world" might be a bit of an exaggeration. Some websites need more information than just looks. Like Japanese websites.
User centric ? No way. Maybe the big guys might have their act together but everything else, needs total help. I live in Sweden, and I can tell you right now, I have the worst experiences with the websites here, especially on mobile. Even if the site has a IU, it feels like they completely overlook UX navigation is one of the worst as it’s so hard to find anything you’re looking for That’s just for starters.
why spotify keep messing with it's ui like man it's ass now , it was usable before but now big ass search bar at top , there were 2,3 thing it needed before but now it need whole rework
programmers probably want something to show for to stay employed lol, what is some boss says, you worked for 3 years but the UI never changed for 3 years?

Spotify's UI/UX, specially UX is questionable thou
yeah it's definitely got its issues, i'd argue they went too far into the deep end
Can’t agree with this enough. Spotify UI/UX is a dumpster fire.
I hate there UX
It's terrible
Spotify is to UX/UI, what Russia is to Ukraine.
It sucks on iphone so switched to apple music.

I kinda miss old web design from around 2004-2012 - it felt clean to.
it did have its own vibe to it

Bruh, you literally showed rookie level-1 4$ on Fiverr web design and call it "Best in the World"

As a Swedish designer I must say your probably right. This is basic fundamentals in webdesign. Not Swedish webdesign.
12:44 This site is mostly serif fonts. In fact, this is the only site mentioned in this video that doesn't solely use sans-serif fonts.
that is true tbh
It sure is, I am looking at it now on desktop, and it's Serif mostly. Typeface called DNSerifVF
Aren't these all just basic web design concepts taught anywhere? I don't see how any of this is particularly Swedish.
I don't know who you are, first time seeing this channel, just some feedback. For content like this I think you need to show actual examples when you're talking about those things, abstract emojis, gifs and images don't mean anything and anyone can interpret it in any way

People interpret things differently. There’s no right or wrong but there’s probably a balance somewhere
Spotify's design has been widely criticized. And rightfully so - it is an inconsistent mess.
Really needed as a beginner ❤
Glad I could help!
Ngl, i like youtube music's UI more than Spotify
I liked the ideology, it resonates with some of my values, and some of the examples are quite good.
thanks!
Well, none of this is specific to swedish design, it’s just common knowledge best design practices
Right? That's what I was thinking. It's just the basics.
exactly what I was thinking while waiting for that swedish specific thing

IKEA Was design by Work&Co An American Design Company.
Work&Co is actually a Global Design Company, founded by Brazilians and Americans, with offices around the globe and with designers who know how to adapt all styles of design. :)
Using Spotify as an example of good design makes me question your knowledge of design. Thumbs down on this one unfortunately 👎
Why though
basically an how to get your audience dopamine addicted by tecnology xD
i mean every ui/ux is better if you compare it with Indian web design
😂
😅😂

Europe in general have a very good design culture
Are you from Mumbai or your Editor because your Spotify recommendation suggest you are from Mumbai.
Should it be for ALL UX processes?
This is my design ideology too, turns out I'm Swedish!
i guess im swedish too LOL

why would i think of ikea when talking about WEB design
It depends. The title "Best in the world" might be a bit of an exaggeration. Some websites need more information than just looks. Like Japanese websites.
Somebody send this video to the Bank of Malsives ASAP
I have the feeling Swedes use global design language😮
This YT channel looks very inspired by some other popular one. 🤗
How much of the script did chatgpt write?
This just described silicone valley web design.
that world wide principles not only Swedish -_-
How's any of this Swedish? These are all UX trends and basic design fundamentals.
What’s the difference between Swiss Design & Swedish Design, they seem the same

Men came for UI/UX, men see YO YO HONEY SINGH, men happy :)

Lol spotify has just about the worst modern interface design. Their UX is abysmal too.
they ended up going way too far off the deep end with some of their decisions i'll definitely agree :)
The Sweden education is good thats why maybe
2:50 KK😁❤
Spotify design is a mess, when I see a white website I got blinded
There's a lot of Indianness in this video; the voice is not Indian, though.
Ikea app is just trash what are you talking about
its got its issues for sure
nice editing :)
Thanks! 😁
No.
This video shall be titled as "Swedish propaganda web design" tbh
"Swedish Designer's" x30
