ABSTRACT
Storystamp is an interactive installation designed using the place-oriented design approach that we have developed previously as part of a research project titled: A place-oriented approach: from field knowledge to design framework. The approach was developed based on the literature of place and a field study of existing media architecture artefacts. It aims to provide place-oriented design framework that enables designers to engage with and incorporate the uniqueness of places when designing media architecture artefacts. In this study, we provide an evaluation on the impact of the framework on designing media architecture artefact for placemaking. Using the case of Storystamp, we conducted a field study that consists of observations on how people interact it. We also interviewed people who interacted with the Storystamp. Based on the findings from this field study and interviews, we report on people's interactions and experiences with the Storystamp to identify the potential for place-oriented design artefacts to facilitate placemaking.
