"How many designers know about kerning and the psychology behind colors? How many designers understand the principles of typography and white space?"
Every designer and user knows these principles, if they are enacted properly it looks like shit. "That's the wrong color", you think, so you either change it until it's right, or you've taken the short cut and explicitly learned rules to save time through experience, talent or from someone else at college, work or in a book.
"That text is all off, look at the space between the t and the r" you say, and fix it. You don't even need to know that it's called keming.
No one needs to know what other people call these principles. You don't need language to dance, paint or even drive a car.
