A much-needed guide on how to apply patterns in user interfacedesign
While the subject of design patterns for software development hasbeen covered extensively, little has been written about the powerof the pattern format in interface design. A Pattern Approach toInteractive Design remedies this situation, providing for the firsttime an introduction to the concepts and application of patterns inuser interface design. The author shows interface designers how tostructure and capture user interface design knowledge from theirprojects and learn to understand each other's design principles andsolutions. Key features of this book include a comprehensivepattern language for the interface design of interactive exhibitsas well as a thorough introduction to original pattern work and itsapplication in software development. The book also offersinvaluable practical guidance for interface designers, projectmanagers, and researchers working in HCI, as well as for designersof interactive systems.
