An Introduction to the Theory and Application of User-centered Design
About this book
User experience design is one of the fastest-growing specialties in graphic design. Smart companies realize that the most successful products are designed to meet the needs and goals of real people—the users. This means putting the user at the center of the design process.
This innovative, comprehensive book examines the user-centered design process from the perspective of a designer. With rich imagery, Interactive Design introduces the different UX players, outlines the user-centered design process from user research to user testing, and explains through various examples how user-centered design has been successfully integrated into the design process of a variety of design studios worldwide.

User-centered
design
(UCD)
is
a
design
philosophy
that
puts
the
user
of
a
product,
application,
or
experience,
at
the
center
of
the
design
process.
In
UCD,
a
designer
strives
for
a
detailed
understanding
of
the
needs,
wants,
and
limitations
of
the
people
who
will
use
the
end
product
and
then
makes
design
choices
that
incorporate
this
understanding.
UCD
requires
that
designers
not
only
analyze
and
foresee
how
users
engage
with
a
product,
but
they
also
test
their
designs
in
the
real
world
with
actual
users.
Testing
is
an
essential
component
of
UCD,
because
it
is
often
very
difficult
for
designers
to
intuitively
understand
how
users
will
perceive,
understand,
and
use
their
designs.
