User Interface / IA Designers
für jeden Auftrag

The information technology world is full of many weird and wonderful acronyms which all make perfect sense to those who are privy to the industry however to those who are not, the terminology, acronyms and abbreviations can quite literally sometimes feel like listening to another language.

An example of this is the term user interface; in short, and commonly, it is referred to as UI. UI is the umbrella term used to refer to everything a human being needs to interact with an electronic device such as a computer. Examples of UI are a screen, a mouse, a keyboard, visuals, a desktop, a website – anything and everything required for a person to connect with their device.

Another example of a commonly used IT acronym is IA or information architecture. IA is defined as the design of information environments to make them understandable and user-friendly. This applies to websites, intranets, and online software. While you can have one without the other, ultimately both UI (user interface) and IA (information architecture) interact with each other to define the overall experience of an electronic device user.

If you lack the technical knowledge required to know your IA’s from your UI’s and how these specialized skills can benefit you, then a good sign is if users are struggling to use your website. If it is difficult to navigate and not user-friendly then not only are you not providing good customer service which will affect your brand and reputation in the long-run, you also risk losing potential clients to your competitors if they find it easier to click out of your site and onto somebody else’s.
