Course — IxD2: Intro to User Interface Studio, ArtCenter College of Design, Pasadena, CA, 2018 - Ongoing
Interaction Design 2 introduces the user interface as the foundation of formal communication within the field of interaction design. This studio covers: 1. What the user interface is, computer metaphors, and it’s historical context; 2. How to draw user interfaces using design elements, visual hierarchy, layout, and flows/sequences; and 3. How to navigate, organize and view information through interactive control systems. Students will understand the relationship between the form and function of the user interface (UI) and learn to represent those concepts through drawing – low, mid, high-fidelity wireframes, visual language research, ideation, and final user interface designs.
