Introduction to Interfaces and Information Architecture
Modern life is full of examples of interactivity and interface design, whether physical, contextual or virtual. The "User Experience" has factored more and more in our world, as products and services become more sophisticated in attracting and serving a customer base, and as these products and services become more information-based and information-dependent.
User Interface/User Experience has evolved from the pre-digital disciplines known as "Human Factors" and "Ergonomics" in which products were studied and tested to learn how things were actually used by customers, in order to create a better experience for their users, in order to improve the success of the project.
Today, the overwhelming variety of digital activities has bred an almost limitless assortment of possible interface elements, web-based, device-based, and system-based. We will look at the range of these possibilities, with a view to incorporating these elements in our designs, campaigns and branding projects.
