Welcome

This is the website of Gillian Crampton Smith and Philip Tabor. It mostly concerns their interaction design courses at IUAV University of Venice, Italy.

Interaction design is the creative design of the interaction between people and devices, systems or services. This interaction usually involves the ‘new technologies’ of computing and communications.

But interaction design remains a design activity – like architectural, graphic or product design. And it concerns the social value and cultural meaning of what is designed, not only its functional efficiency and visual appeal.
