Design Sites To Work In A High-Resolution World

The Decline Of 1024 x 768 And What To Do About It

by Ron Rogowski

with Richard Gans, Rachel Zinser

This is an excerpt

Executive Summary

The proliferation of high-resolution screens that well surpass 1024 x 768 adds a new layer of complexity to site design. Not only is there no standard resolution to design for, but higher-resolution screens pose usability challenges for sites that were designed for lower-resolution displays. Designers can combat usability challenges for high-resolution users by ensuring legibility with text resizing tools, controlling the use of white space, and creating a clear visual hierarchy that prioritizes essential content and function.
