“
It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Paul Hekkert
Paul Hekkert is professor of Form Theory at the department of Industrial Design of Delft University of Technology. His main research interest is product experience, including product aesthetics, emotion, expressiveness, and attachment. Next, he is involved in design methodology and has co-developed an interaction-centred design approach, called ViP (Vision in Product design).

“Typicality and novelty have often been shown to be related to aesthetic preference of human artefacts. Since a typical product is rarely new and, conversely, a novel product will not often be designated as typical, the positive effects of both features seem incompatible. In three studies it was shown that typicality (operationalized as ‘goodness of example’) and novelty are jointly and equally effective in explaining the aesthetic preference of consumer products, but that they suppress each other's effect. Direct correlations between both variables and aesthetic preference were not significant, but each relationship became highly significant when the influence of the other variable was partialed out. In Study 2, it was furthermore demonstrated that the expertise level of observers did not affect the relative contribution of novelty and typicality. It was finally shown (Study 3) that a more ‘objective’ measure of typicality, central tendency — operationalized as an exemplar's average similarity to all other members of the category — yielded the same effect of typicality on aesthetic preference. In sum, all three studies showed that people prefer novel designs as long as the novelty does not affect typicality, or, phrased differently, they prefer typicality given that this is not to the detriment of novelty. Preferred are products with an optimal combination of both aspects.”

“In this paper, we carry on the development of the Experience Interaction Tool (EXIT), a tool created to
sensitize participants in research and aid researcher’s assessment of interactions that lead to/are followed by
enduring experiences. First, we present the influence interactions have in emotional experiences people
have with products, the difficulties of assessing interactions involved in enduring emotional experiences,
and our first efforts to develop a tool that aims to overcome such difficulties. Finally, we present the set up
of a study in which we have trialed the Experience Interaction Tool, analyzed its use, and discussed its
effectiveness, usefulness and proposed the next steps of its development.”

“In this paper, we first address the problems of assessing full sequences of interaction episodes
that lead to/are followed by enduring product experiences. Enduring product experiences are
dynamic experiences that occur towards the same object, in person-product relationships,
through a (relatively) long period of time. The appraisal of these sequences of interaction
episodes allows the assessment of information that is envisioned to be valuable to designers who
are concerned with designing for experiences.
To aid the assessment of interactions linked to enduring experiences, we propose the
development of a manageable tool, envisioned to (1) sensitize (inform) participants in research
about interactions that may be associated with product experiences, (2) impose a structure to
stories in order to (a) easily identify interactions, (b) avoid unneeded data and (c) facilitate the
systematic assessment of interactions and experiences.
Here, through a succession of iterative exploratory studies, we present the first three phases of
the development of the Experience Interaction Tool (EXIT).”
