Designing for Service Experiences

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Human–Computer Interaction Series ((HCIS))

Abstract

In this chapter, we discuss the way service design processes are conducted through make-believe, and the contributions that service design and its modes of thinking can offer for HCI. Focusing on the experientiality of service, we through a review of design processes, business logics and sample techniques illustrate the presence of make-believe at all stages of fruitful design.
