Where does the role of an interior designer stop, for the interactive
designer to start, in designing an interactive exhibition space

interactive display surfaces, and smart material)??
One school of thought is that an interior designer for a space would
act as a visual designer would for software/web and as a industrial
designer would for products: give form to the behavior the interaction
design has mapped out.
The line is probably blurrier in interactive spaces, however. (Which
is why it's really interesting.) I spoke at the Event Design Summit
back in October, and that community has a lot of interesting things to
say about this blend. For many of them, "interactives" are just part
of the overall space. There's no division of duties.
