The aim is to uncover structural weaknesses that confuse users, create friction, or lead to poor decisions—independent of subjective taste or stylistic preference.
The focus is on perception, expectation alignment, feedback mechanisms, error prevention, cognitive load, and decision support. Findings are clearly structured, prioritized, and translated into concrete, actionable recommendations.
This is not about design opinion, but defensible and repeatable evaluation.
