Interaction Design

Our interaction design focuses on making the user’s experience as simple and intuitive as possible.

  • Concept Models help visualize desired current and future areas of functionality. This can be a good tool to capture all ideas and see how they connect to each other. Additionally they can help show overlaps and gaps in features.

  • Interaction Models are best when based upon a previously-completed task analysis. These models help define a project’s functional requirements and bring about consensus among stakeholders.

  • These black-and-white “sketches” define a system’s content and structure. They serve to define page-level functionality without introducing the added variables of visual design.

  • Once the IA and navigation schema are established, we create detailed UI specifications to clearly express the functionality and structure of a system for the development team.

  • Whether paper or interactive, rapid prototyping allows clients and users to walk through the experience before any money is spent on development.

Our interaction design focuses on making the user’s experience as simple and intuitive as possible. Good interaction design not only effectively communicates a product’s interactivity and functionality, but it also defines the product’s responses to user interactions. Addressing both simple and complex workflows, we develop an interaction design schema and paradigm that informs users about system state changes and prevents user error using techniques such as behavior-shaping constraints.
