We describe the architecture of the Zoom Illustrator-an interactive system to illustrate spatial phenomena. The system focuses on the combination of rendered images with textual descriptions. Fisheye techniques are employed to present detailed information while maintaining the context of the overall available information. Our system was designed in an object-oriented manner. In this paper, we focus on an OO-description of the Zoom Illustrator compared to a system description in terms of the SRM. The feasibility of a description in terms of the SRM encourages its use for the description of interactive systems. Our conclusion is that the OO-and the SRM-description complement one another. In unison with one another, they lead to a significantly more structured system description than could be attained with either of the methods taken by itself.
