Continuing our IA interview series as we put on the final touches before World IA Day, we want to show off Erika Mosher, Senior Information Architect.
User experience is often about compromises. Sometimes you can't make things easier for users because redoing a certain feature may not fit into a particular budget or timeline. Or, sometimes for security reasons you have to put up hurdles. This is the case with the CAPTCHA, a device meant to stop robots from submitting forms and wreaking havoc. Setting aside the fact that these are often overused, let's at least agree that because the CAPTCHA is designed for a real-life human being, it should be written in human language. This is what the music-streaming service MOG does. They avoid all of the pain that an ordinary CAPTCHA will cause on legitimate users by asking them a simple question. Bonus points for explaining below why they're asking this question. Simple, effective and most-importantly person-friendly.

Overview
The mission was to help our client launch the new Cayenne Turbo. A new trim off their already existing and popular Cayenne model line. Collaborating with the creative team, we designed a user experience where the new Cayenne was front and center. For context we chose to highlight the heritage that all Porsche model share. An RFP was developed and sent to nationally recognized digital production shops.

Students that I worked with throughout the development of both the typeface and book were asked to write short paragraphs about their memories of elementary school. These excerpts were used as copy for both the specimen card set and this poster. This helped add a bit of perspective to my work for those users no longer involved in the world of elementary education.
