ABSTRACT

In this lecture, three case studies will be presented.

This will be followed by Q&A session.

The discussion will touch on the idea of design patterns, moving from tangible spaces (Christopher Alexander) to virtual environments (Howard Rheingold) and social affordance as a set of principles (rules that don’t prescribe the solution but support a rationale behind a design pattern), practices (most effective and efficient way to solve a problem) and patterns (core solutions). Finally, the concept of information architecture can be introduced as the design of informational spaces, the moment where, according to a specific set of intentions, the interaction is defined and social patterns are carefully chosen.
