The objectives of this project to identify the element of graceful interaction that could be apply in the online news website interface, to design an interface using Graceful Interaction Framework and to demonstrate a new interface design prototype. Phases for the research methodology problem identification & planning, knowledge acquisition and analysis, design and prototype development. This research studies the element in the graceful interaction framework where it is to be apply to an online news website.
