As a synthesis, this paper offers the opportunity to rethink the status of current technologies within the design review process. It suggests the potential for transforming the complex participatory, communicative, and technical nuances of the design review process to coexist with the affordances of the new genre of digital media. Thus, this paper presents the final stage of an ongoing study that focuses on the design and evaluation of an interactive communication medium, called SketchBoard, for the design review process. Findings reveal that SketchBoard that embodies intelligent and intelligible behavior could potentially remedy the vagueness of visualization. This could further provide an insight into improving participatory communication and visualization around technical activities within the design review process using mobile interactive surfaces.
