DPPI - International Conference on Designing Pleasurable Products and Interfaces

This conference originally was driven by the need to move away from a purely functional approach to usability, and focused on a more experiential approach to human-product interaction. Now, the rationalization of the means for design and production leading to a relative standardisation of the products on the market, the sharp competition between the mature companies exhorts to take into account the aspects linked to the perceptions of the final users and to turn innovation into a more experiential approach to human-product interaction.
