Make Them Smile

My wife Mehera bought a candle and when I opened the tube to smell the candle, I smiled. In the tube on top of the candle was a matchbook, with the candle maker’s logo, of course. In our house, we don’t light things often, so finding matches isn’t always easy. Big Dipper Wax Works made it easy.

Last spring, I attended a workshop by Dan Buchner from Design Continuum in which he discussed and had us design the out-of-the-box experience for a media player. One of the points I took away is that experience design, like most other design, works best when you don’t notice it. You’re too busy smiling.
