The intention is to address the practices of spatial and information design as the same design problem, thus acknowledging the simultaneity of contemporary lifestyles. This report summarizes my explorations in graduate school to develop a methodology, which combines the use of physical and virtual components to enable the design of meaningful places.application/pdfengDesignInteractionPlace makingTowards the design of synchronous placesthesis2011-07-182152/ETD-UT-2011-05-3289
