Spacing 

Form components must be designed with in mind, to ensure users have a smooth experience when engaging with the interface. Spacing should be kept consistent, as clumped elements make it difficult for users to understand relationships between different components. The users should also easily identify the elements and read the instructions without effort. 

​

Consistency 

Grid-based layouts should be used to create a consistent flow, making sure all elements on the form have the same amount of whitespace and the same distance between each other. This helps users to quickly identify key elements and process information efficiently with minimum effort. 

​

Visibility

When designing a form, it is important to make sure elements are visible and easily accessible to users. The layout should be uncluttered, visually-appealing and display the elements in a way that meets user’s expectations.

​

Simplicity

Form components should be kept as simple as possible, so that the user can understand what’s required of them. Incorporating inline validation ensures the users can quickly identify issues and errors and make corrections. 

​

User-Friendly 

Lastly, a form should be designed in such a way that it allows users to complete the task as quickly and efficiently as possible. The layout of the form should be intuitive and the elements should be labeled correctly and with clarity. This helps users complete tasks without feeling overwhelmed or confused. 

​

In conclusion, to ensure the form is user friendly, it’s important to consider spacing, consistency, visibility, simplicity and overall usability. Designers should ensure the form is visually-pleasing and the elements are clearly labeled and easy to understand. This way, users are able to quickly and efficiently complete tasks without feeling overwhelmed or confused.
