What is Information Design?
As approved/confirmed by the IIID
General Assemblies 1993 and 2000:
Information, as defined by the idX group
„is the result of processing, manipulating and organizing
data in a way that adds to the knowledge of the person
receiving it“.
Design is the identifying of a problem and the
intellectual creative effort of an originator, manifesting
itself in drawings or plans which include schemes and
specifications.
Accordingly, information design is the
defining, planning, and shaping of the contents of a message
and the environments in which it is presented, with the
intention to satisfy the information needs of the intended
recipients”, IIID definition modified by the idX
group (see link from the IIID homepage: idX/information
design exchange,
Outcome (p. 8)). |
