Crafting Interactive Decoration (2017)
Journal Article
Benford, S., Koleva, B., Quinn, A., Thorn, E., Glover, K., Preston, W., …Mortier, R. (2017). Crafting Interactive Decoration. ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction, 24(4), 1-39. https://doi.org/10.1145/3058552

We explore the crafting of interactive decoration for everyday artefacts. This involves adorning them with decorative patterns that enhance their beauty while triggering digital interactions when scanned with cameras. These are realised using an exis...
