The UX of Architecture

Clearle! were one of the first UX agencies in the UK

Had to explain UX to clients

Architecture was an obvious analogy

UX designers mix creative and technical

Work closely with clients to shape vision

Understand how the product will be used

We try to create experiences

UI sketches

Similar deliverables

Similar deliverables

Prototypes

Wireframes

Similar deliverables

Work closely with engineers

Shape the digital landscape

And the behaviours therein

It’s just a metaphor Deal with it!

Any wonder we looked to architecture?

Any wonder we looked to architecture?

Any wonder we looked to architecture?

Any wonder we looked to architecture?

Our Industry was born out of architecture

In awe (and a li"le jealous) of architects

My opinion has changed over time

Anecdote #1

Highly recommendthis book

Anecdote #2

Do architects really care about their clients?

Do architects really care about their users?

Do architects really care about their environment?

Do architects really care about the human condition?

Or is a lot of itpure ego?

This is what Frank Gehry thinks

Architects aren’t magical sparkle ponies

User centred designerscan show them a thing or two

They’re just making a nice place to do it from

We’re inventing the future
