UI (user interface)

The visual layer of a website: buttons, colours, fonts and layout.

UI is how your site looks, UX is how it feels. The two need to work together. A consistent, modern design shows within seconds that you're a professional business.

What does this mean in practice?

UI stands for User Interface. It's the visual side of your website: colours, fonts, buttons, icons, white space and layout. Where UX is about how something works, UI is about how it looks.

Why does this matter for your business?

A consistent, modern design builds trust within seconds. Changing colours, different kinds of buttons or random fonts erode that trust, even before a customer has read what you offer.

Examples and best practices

  • Use a limited number of brand colours.
  • Stick to one style for buttons and icons.
  • Use the same white space and the same grid everywhere.
  • Only make what really matters stand out.
