About
This site aims to explore the issues that arise when members of one culture design artifacts for use by members of another culture.
I’m particularly interested in web design, and the challenges and opportunitites that web designers face when working with clients and end-users from other audiences. The welcome post has some background on the genesis of this site and my interest in these topics.
