Abstract.
Digital displays, both large and small, are increasingly being used within the home. These displays have the potential to dramatically change the way people experience the sharing and display of their digital photographs. Yet if photo display and sharing is to be socially natural, we must first understand how domestic photo displays should be designed to fit within the everyday practices of families. In this position paper, I reflect on several existing projects on domestic displays to shed light on design properties that I feel will enhance the digital photo routines of families.
