Desktop PC

Designing for desktop PCs offers the advantage of larger screen real estate, making them versatile for both work and leisure. Here are some key considerations:

  • Viewing distance: Like laptops, users typically view desktop screens from 50-100cm (20-40in). Ensure that elements are clearly visible and interactive at this distance.
  • Clean design: A spacious screen is no excuse for clutter. Keep the interface clean, focused, and intuitive to guide users toward their goals.
  • Versatility: Desktops serve multiple purposes, from professional tasks to entertainment. Your design should be adaptable to a variety of user needs.
  • Performance: Desktops generally have more processing power than other devices. However, don't overload the UI with unnecessary elements just because you can.

Remember, a well-designed desktop interface provides a seamless transition between work and play, maximizing the user's efficiency and enjoyment.
