The LogosFlow system used by the District Six museum to capture and browse artefact collections is neither user-friendly nor intuitive. It was decided that an entirely new system be built and a user-centered design approach be taken to achieve this. Meetings were held with the collections staff, problems with the previous system identified and possible solutions brainstormed. Human-computer interaction methodologies were applied to the user interfaces and the usability of the resulting interfaces was subsequently tested by the staff. It was found that the proposed system was more intuitive and much easier to use than the LogosFlow system and that with the addition of minor extensions it might be a suitable replacement for the current system
