SAP shares its Interface Design History


Source: UN, 24 March 2003
Submitted by Ann Light

Interesting is the history of SAP's growing awareness of style issues as it redesigns its interface over several iterations. The article is well illustrated and captures something of the general history of interface design as emphasis has moved from functionality to image.
