Figure 1: This is the user interface design

Figure 2: This is the user experience design

The English in Figure 2 probably means: etching a fly with a black outline on the toilet. If the man who pees sees the fly, he will "aim" at it. The Fly in urinal study indicated that after the fly was etched, the urine was reduced by 80%.

2. Interactive Designer Dan Saffer's answer

In simple terms: User experience (UX) The overall experience of a product or service, including the user interface (UI). The UI is usually made up of visual design (sensation and appearance) and interaction design (how it works). However, UX can cover many disciplines, from industrial design to architecture to content. I drew a picture more than a year ago, as follows:

To use a restaurant analogy:

tableware, plates, tables, chairs, these are user interface;
Food, service, atmosphere, these are the user experience.
Update: Simplify: The UI is what users interact with your product, and UX is what users feel when they interact with the product.
