As an AI language model I do not have personal experience, but here are some ways that designers can ensure user delight:
1. User-Centered Design Approach: Align the design goals and objectives with the users' needs through research, user surveys, and usability testing.
2. Simple & Intuitive Design Elements: Ensure that the design interface is simple, easy to use, and navigate. Users should be able to interact with your product without any confusion or difficulties.
3. Consistency in Design + Micro Interactions: Consistency in design creates a sense of familiarity and makes the user comfortable with your design interface. Micro-interactions add small animations or feedback that make the user feel that their interactions are meaningful.
4. Error Prevention & Correction : Users can be easily frustrated if they make a mistake and cannot undo it. Design with an error prevention and correction system and ensure that it is readily available and easy to use.
5. Emotional Design: Psychological and emotional factors in design can make your user experience more engaging, memorable, and pleasing. Emotional design can be achieved through color schemes, imagery, typography, and even sound design.
By combining these techniques and approaches, designers can ensure that their users have a delightful experience interacting with a design interface.
