As physical and digital interactions intertwine, new challenges for digital product designers and developers - as well as industrial designers and architects - are materializing. While well versed in designing navigation, organization, and labelling of websites and software, professionals are faced with the crucial challenge of applying these techniques to information systems that link the digital world to the physical world.

*Model and shape information to adapt itself to users needs, goals, and seeking strategies

*Reduce disorientation and increase legibility and way-finding in digital and physical spaces

*Alleviate the frustration associated with choosing from an ever-growing set of information, services, and goods

*Suggest relevant connections between pieces of information, services and goods to help users achieve their goals.
