During the design sessions, the designers created new concepts of interactive television programs for given TV viewers. The creative work was based on user profiles collected in the preceding user study. The aim of research was to include the future users into the product development in the early stages of new product design. Both TV viewers and designers created innovations of future interactive applications and the results are discussed.
