What is user experience design?
An article on the Paradyme Solutions blog examines the term user experience design and analyses its relation to other fields, such as experience design, interaction design, information architecture, human-computer interaction, human factors engineering, usability and user interface design.
After pointing out and dissecting the overlap between these fields, the author concludes “the field of user experience design takes a broad approach to the enhancement of products, combining elements from various fields to create an optimal and well-rounded experience. This holistic methodology is often more adept at helping to reach a set of goals that encompass passive and active user interactions–goals determined both by users and the business or organisation.”
