INTERACTIVE DESIGN

DEFINITION

Interactive design is the discipline in defining the behaviour of products and systems along with how a user operates it: focusing on the users experience.
Through interactive design a user is able to navigate through the internet in a new and engaging way. This process typically centers around complex technology systems such as software, electronic and mobile devices. The interactive design of these complex technology systems specifically focus on their use by the interactive user.
In essence it is creating a story and telling it with a strong emphasis on creating an experience for the user.

Some examples of Interactive websites include:


The Nike website www.nike.com.au/thearmoury
