However the constant use of ‘look and feel’ to describe the role of designers in interactive agencies does only harm — it positions them as nothing more than painters and decorators.”

“The evolution of the Information Architect’s project deliverables has, out of necessity, become a process focused on flat representational site maps — a controlled jumble lines and squares on paper or on a screen. If web sites are dimensional information spaces, then what do IAs miss by typically presenting artifacts in two-dimensions? The experimental paper and plastic sheet forms in the project test the possibilities for adding physical dimension to paper deliverables by using basic office supplies.”

“See, I have a different perspective than most content people. For sites with public feedback mechanisms (like this one), I advise clients to treat every piece of content as the beginning of a conversation with the community. When you look at content that way, it makes sense to raise the bar a bit.”
