Spotify Design Principles

Content first: "Ultimately, that is what our users are coming to the service for. We want to represent the music in the best way possible," said Kadir. As explained before, the black look lets the music and the beautiful art that comes along with it shine.

Be alive: "That's about Spotify never being stale or boring, but always having something new for you and always feeling refreshing," said Kadir. Again, Spotify hadn't overhauled its look in years. Much of the new app feels fresher and more modern.

Get familiar: "That’s about that type of platform design that kind of works no matter if you're on your computer or on your phone. The design is so holistic on the different platforms.”

Do less: That’s very much about the user not needing to use much effort for what they want to do. It needs to be intuitive, it needs to be really slick, it needs to be simple, really getting the user to do what they want.”

Stay authentic: "We wanted to have a product that has a core identity and is really unique." Despite the new paint job, Spotify still looks familiar.

"Lagom": It's a Swedish word that means that perfect balance of being not too much and not too little.

Bit of a giggle now you know the code :)

To a lot of non-developers, learning to code seems like an impossibly daunting task. However, thanks to a number of great resources that have recently been put online for free— teaching yourself to code has never been easier. I started learning to code earlier this year and can say from experience that learning enough to build your own prototype is not as hard as it seems. In fact, if you want to have a functioning prototype within two months without taking a day off work, it’s completely doable.

Bit of inspiration! And great resources
