This is a tangible tool designed to facilitate collaborative magazine design. The goal was to transform typical small-screen interactions into a more engaging, large-scale tool, while learning about key design principles such as affordances, signifiers, constraints, and feedback. Effective collaboration in a team setting often requires continuous communication and the refinement of each other’s ideas. Working solely on individual computers can be inefficient for such dynamic interaction. Therefore, a "large tool" that allows team members to input their ideas and communicate through it can lead to more efficient and unified work processes.
