This presentation is taken from DIS 2008 conference. It aims at presenting a methodological perspective based on the notion of the Aesthetics of Interaction in ambient computing systems. Aesthetics of Interaction is challenged by the design proposal for the soft qualities of interaction, which is used as a tool to complement the existing design methodologies. It is indeed the author’s conviction that the role of these aspects is indispensable to the design of ambient computing systems, in which the interaction does not take place only according to the ‘one on one’ relationship between the human and the device; it is also distributed within the setting - and throughout the settings -, pervades everyday objects, and enables new relationships, which arise from the environmental and relational conditions enabled.
