“Intuitive design happens when current knowledge is the same as the target knowledge.”
Jared Spool, Web Site Usability: A Designer's Guide

Jon Yablonski
“As designers, we have a responsibility to remove inherent complexity from our interfaces, or else we ship that complexity to our users. This can result in confusion, frustration and a bad user experience. Where possible, designers and developers should handle complexity, while taking care not to over-simplify to the point of abstraction.”
Jon Yablonski, Laws of UX: Using Psychology to Design Better Products & Services
