In the design world, a “disturber” refers to elements or factors that disrupt the harmonious arrangement of a product, graphic, website, or any other design. Disturbers can take various forms, including unwanted visual elements, poorly placed text, excessive use of colors or fonts, inconsistent design styles, or anything that negatively impacts the user experience.

The goal of a design is often to convey a clear message or fulfill a specific function. Disturbers can dilute this message or hinder functionality by diverting attention from the main purpose of the design. Designers work to identify and minimize disturbers to ensure that their work communicates effectively and provides a positive user experience.
