Good web design is about the character of the content, not the character of the designer

“Good web design is about the character of the content, not the character of the designer.” - Jeffrey Zeldman

This quote was mentioned in Jeffrey’s 2008 An Event Apart presentation as well as his presentation at the 2008 AIGA Business and Design Conference.

Thanks to Derek Nelson (@dN_redNests) for pointing out this quote!

1. The web designer’s job is to create pages that are unmistakably engaging
2. What is web design?
3. Design is about communication, and it takes more than pixels to communicate
4. Good design achieves integrity in balanced relation to its environment
5. Understanding that all design happens within a context is key to becoming a good designer
