Knowledge Base Repository

In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
User-product-environment interaction is a dynamics reflected in the concept of affordance and, consequently, in the user experience. The study of these three concepts is indeed evidently interconnected and mutually dependent. Accordingly, this study presents a tool developed for coding the user experience, namely UX grammar (Dabouis et al., 2024a, 2024b), as a suitable framework for further capturing affordances and their characteristics. An application of the UX grammar model, along with affordances evaluations derived from the coding output, is presented to validate the proposed methodology.
