Sunrise Solar Design System Principles
Seven design principles acting as a compass for designing Sunrise interfaces, keeping the team aligned throughout the design process.
-
Intuitive & Clear
Use familiar patterns to make experiences easy to understand. Consider hierarchy, proximity, alignment, contrast, negative space and repetition.
-
Considerate
Base design decisions on industry standards, best practices and research data rather than opinions. Dive deep into the problem with clear purpose.
-
Empowering
Design components and interfaces to fully empower users to complete their tasks. Optimise for important tasks whilst giving access to more details if needed.
-
Trustworthy
Act as a trustworthy partner and treat users with respect. Be honest and transparent, eliminating unnecessary complexity and dark patterns.
-
Adaptive
Build experiences that work on every screen, platform and language. Components work seamlessly together in whichever combination suits user needs.
-
Consistent
Design for predictability. Consistent positions, styles and behaviours reduce mental load so users can focus on tasks rather than learning the UI.
-
Accessible
Design components to be accessible to everyone, inclusive towards people whose physical, mental or environmental conditions limit their performance.
