[Sigia-l] Elegance in the design and IA community

[Marc Wendell]

Hello all:

I was wondering if anybody out there could assist me in gathering some
information on a paper I'm writing. I'm a graduate student at Pratt
SILS and I'm finishing my degree this semester. My paper focuses on
the how IAs and designers view "elegance" as a concept or design
element. Can anyone point me in the direction of any timely academic
literature (i.e. journal articles, etc) or other sources that deal
with elegance in the IA/design context?

Thanks very much,
