I once read a claim that the greatest UI design ever was the silver metal patch on building doors, which indicate where you should push.

Better than the handle of the banana that indicates which side to open?

    Weirdly it's actually usually easier, in the sense of less force required, to open from the "bottom", non-stem end, but you end up with a less aesthetically pleasing result.

      And when opening from the non-stem end you get more of a handle, and there is less mass on the hanging peel. It's a win all around.

      It's also a conversation maker (sometimes you're not party to that conversation) and gets you labeled at the office.
