Actually, an interface designer does the same as the interaction designer by that definition as well. If the interface designer *didn't* concern themselves with the behavior they'd be simply a graphic or visual designer. In fact, at most software companies, they have interaction and visual designers combine their work to create the interface because there has always been a distinct lack of people who can do both at the level needed to ship professional software. But given that one is an "interaction" designer and the other is a"visual" designer and what they ultimately make is the "interface," logic dictates that an "interface" designer would in fact do the job of both. -- Andrei Herasimchuk Principal, Involution Studios innovating the digital world e.
