Description
Understanding Context by Andrew Hinton provides a powerful toolset to help professionals in information architecture, UX design, and web/app development understand and solve challenges related to contextual ambiguity. This insightful book explores how context is perceived in digital environments and how design contributes to creating context. You'll discover how labels, relationships, and rules work as building blocks for context, and learn models for figuring out the contextual angles of any user experience. The book also delves into how language creates infrastructure in organizations, software, and the Internet of Things, and how to make sense of cross-channel, multi-device products or services. By gaining a deeper understanding of context, you'll be able to design more effective digital products and services that meet the needs of users.
