No Instruction Necessary (Affordance)

“Affordance is one of the more important elements of design; one closely tied to usability. In fact, without proper affordances the rest of the design doesn’t matter — it will simply fail, partially or entirely. An affordance is a property of an object or environment that indicates how it can or should be used.”
