Norman door is a door with a design that makes it difficult to determine the correct way to open the door.
不知道怎么开门才是正确的,有这样设计的门就称为“诺曼门”。
A so-called “Norman Door” has design elements that give you the wrong usability signals to the point that special signage is needed to clarify how they work. Without signs, a user is left guessing about whether to push or pull, creating needless frustration.
所谓的“诺曼门”的设计元素给你错误的使用信号,以至于需要特殊的标识让人搞清楚该怎么开关。如果没有标识,使用者就要猜测该推还是拉,导致不必要的挫败。
The “Norman door” dilemma can be seen in the design of many other everyday items, and even more so in the design of software and website interactions.
“诺曼门”困境在其他日常用品的设计中也很常见,在软件设计和网站交互应用中更是如此。
