user experience by experience

Today the difference between a successful application, web site or interactive tool and a bad one is most likely not to be which technology it runs on but what it is like to use. Google and the iPod do not win out because of bells and whistles but through a compelling and simple user experience. Empathy Digital is a small growing company based upon the philosophy of matching business understanding with user empathy that is both the umbrella for Stewart Dean's consulting activity as well as a greenhouse for growing new and interesting projects.

Stewart Dean has a degree in interactive system design and has been working in industry since 1995 for companies as diverse as Disney, British Telecom, Powergen and Barclays Bank.

Empathy Digital has recently started working directly for clients offering full experience design and content management rollout. The first large scale project will be online in September.

The company offers user experience consulting, information architecture and interface design. Contact Stewart Dean at stewart[at]empathydigital.com.
