During my workshop at Web App Summit 2009 in Newport Beach, I divided the attendees into four groups and had each one go out into the hotel to photograph design patterns related to specific topics. The groups sought out patterns on navigation, information, privacy & security, and conversions. These patterns served as the basis for attendees’ first interaction design frameworks.

As promised to those who attended, I’ve uploaded these photos to  Flickr. It was pretty interesting to see some of the things they came up with — especially the Conversions group, who managed to spot 25 or so different ways that hotels make money.

• Information patterns
• Navigation patterns
• Conversion patterns
• Privacy & Security patterns

Enjoy!
