” Information Architect
- the Past, Present, and the Future of IA”
by Nobuya Sato, Experience Designer
Now, several Japanese Web Design agency have Information Architect title in their organization. Since many IA related resource are in English and a few translated IA books in Japanese, Japanese web industry still think Information Architect as a profession who draw the sitemaps or a non design staff who update the information on wireframes, so designers or project managers can discuss about the design ideas. Even new IAs themselves think IA is the profession defined on the 1st Polar Book… I will try to explain the background history of IA, why and how many global agency emerge into this profession (with my experience with agency such as iXL, Sapient, and Razorfish), pros and cons of IA, and so on.
