What do we do?
Frankly, Green + Webb
Our primary user experience is the space
Frankly, Green + Webb
We want to connect them to the space
Frankly, Green + Webb
By helping them connect with others
Frankly, Green + Webb
And connect with the ideas
Frankly, Green + Webb
User has be able to:•grasp a new experience instantly•use in a new context•use with very little help•always there when you need it but never gets in the way•First and one time only moment
Magical moments aren’t a nice to have,they are a must have.
The digital context
Frankly, Green + Webb
Our users want the physical space augmented
Our users to consume content about stuff
Our users want help them create their own special experience of
the space
Our users need help to locate where they are
Frankly, Green + Webb
Our users don’t really know digital could help them do that
Our users have quite a nice time without digital
Frankly, Green + Webb
Our users have a low drive to use mobile
Frankly, Green + Webb
But we know when we get digital right here, it means…
Frankly, Green + Webb
More memories, more learning
Frankly, Green + Webb
More likely to come back
Frankly, Green + Webb
More likely to connect with the organisation
Frankly, Green + Webb
More likely to share the experience
Frankly, Green + Webb
More likely to spend
Frankly, Green + Webb
More companies are wanting to differentiate their physical offer from the digital offer
Frankly, Green + Webb
But use of digital augmentation is becoming more prevalent

1. What is a magical physical experience?
2. How can we design for magical augmented experiences?
3. What challenges lay ahead?

3. What challenges lay ahead?

EXPERIENCE PRINCIPLE #1:Deliver Challenge +
Surprise
Frankly, Green + Webb
You can’t challenge or surprise anyone if you don’t empathise with
them.
INSIGHT #1:
Frankly, Green + Webb
What users want and expect changes how you
interact with the experience
Same for digital and physical
INSIGHT #2:
Frankly, Green + Webb
Monday: Tourist
Sunday:Child-Led
Frankly, Green + Webb
Example: Cultural Heritage in Wales
Frankly, Green + Webb
RESEARCH:
1.Empty nesters2.Know the county3.Want to experience the beautiful views4.Outdoor types5.Passing interest in Cultural Heritage6.Don’t understand how tourism offers relate to their needs7.Very little signal
Example: Cultural Heritage in Wales
Not enough to want a Cultural
Heritage experience
Frankly, Green + Webb
ACTION:1.Address Motivation - have a unique experience and appreciate the beauty of the county2.Create a Challenge – help them try something simple that they are interested in doing3.Deliver Surprise – help them discover how the history impacts on both
Example: Cultural Heritage in Wales
Frankly, Green + Webb
Example: Cultural Heritage in Wales
TRUST•Acknowledge user needs through self identication•Use first person
CREATE•Build on existing create behaviour•Apply ideas through storytelling
LOCATE•Offer an alternative layer of understanding about a location•Use images as feedback of location•Identify attention grabbing features to reference
Frankly, Green + Webb
PROCESS PRINCIPLE #1:Design the physical experience first
Frankly, Green + Webb
Screen experience
Focus empathy here
Physicalexperience
And then here
Frankly, Green + Webb
PROCESS PRINCIPLE #2:Design in the space and
test in the space
Frankly, Green + Webb
Example: Telling stories with tablets Research for Museum of London
“…the saxon roundhouse where we sat and watched the videos and then thought
about what made our house a home and what differnces the
were between ours and theirs”
Frankly, Green + Webb
EXPERIENCE PRINCIPLE #3:Give focus to the
digital when it matches the physical experience
Frankly, Green + Webb
1. What is a magical physical experience?
2. How can we design for magical augmented experiences?
3. What challenges lay ahead?
Frankly, Green + Webb
We are looking to answer these questions too:
1.As visitors with their own digital augmentation how do we help them create magical moments?
2.How do you time the augmentation and scale it to different users needs?
3.How are we/you going to work with physical designers to create a service that is both physical and digital
Frankly, Green + Webb
If you’re wanting help thinking more about this and the other opportunities and challenges around digital interpretation – get in touch.
Our work is a mixture of:
•Design research for helping understand how audiences use digital technologies in the cultural heritage sector
•Strategic planning and concept development - for funding applications such as heritage lottery funding
•Implementation i.e getting in up to our elbows in order to help these types of projects get up and running. Find out more at:
