Information Architecture

Each user has a different type of information need depending on what he's trying to find and why he's trying to find it. If we can determine the most common information needs a site's users have, we can select the few best architectural components to address those information needs.

Louis Rosenfeld (Co-Author of Information Architecture for the World Wide Web)

 
 

What is Information Architecture?

  • Information architecture is about organizing information so that people can find the information they require where they would expect to acquire it.
  • It sets out to design and apply organization, labelling and navigational systems that are intuitive to users.
