Our interaction design team is part of the Cultural, Communication and Computing Research Institute (C3RI), one of the University’s largest research institutes. We design and evaluate digital products and services, including websites, games and mobile apps. Our team has the skills and expertise to deliver profitable results for you and your organisation. We can help you develop new products and services, and maintain a market edge by better understanding your users’ needs, or by improving an existing user experience.

Designing for people

Our approach is to analyse user behaviour to identify innovations and interactions that improve the user experience. We make apps more intuitive, websites simple to use, and content easier to find and navigate. By designing for people, we can help you grow your business.

Research and Craft

Our research base puts us in a unique position. We combine creative thinking and analytic techniques based on internationally recognised, contemporary research. This helps us involve a wide range of stakeholders and understand what makes products and services successful.

Innovation Futures

Our interaction design team is part of Innovation Futures, a Sheffield Hallam project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund, which may cover your initial consultancy fees.
