You don't. There's overlap. It's nearly impossible to do interaction design without doing some interface design—the reverse is also true. They're co-dependent on each other. If you're designing the interface, then you're going to start getting into the weeds of interaction. Likewise, if you're designing the interaction, you're going to start getting into the weeds of the interface. Now, you might hand that off to someone else to spit and polish, but in reality, you can't do one w/o impacting the other. Cheers!
