King’s Place plays host to usability consultants, information architects, interaction designers and more when UXer’s around the country come together to learn, share and no doubt debate the trends of 2010 in the world of user experience.
The event kicks off with a subject close to our hearts at UX Media: Working together to develop a beautiful user experience. The Team’s Experience Director, Jason Mesut, discusses his vision of a harmonic design and development team, along with Will Bloor and Phil Hawksworth.
