Introduction of Interaction Design

Interaction design influences and inspires the consumer to create actions without thinking.

An example of interaction in everyday life can be determined throughout daily activities such as driving, shopping, games etc. Quoted by Winograd, Interaction design “Creates a space for human communication and interaction.” Which introduces the mindset of how interaction design can guide and provide design for people. Verplank suggests and illustrates questions that allow graphic designs to consider, such as about how people act, how they feel, and how they understand. These factors play an important role of supporting interaction design and the thought process of interaction feedback.
