Mauricio,
I think we are in agreement. It's very difficult to describe something which is going on IN BETWEEN people and artefacts. It's so ephemeral, but it is at the core of what we design. Another way I have found useful is to suggest that what we do is not unlike choreography: we create the possibility of a kind of dance.
Sless, David. “From Semiotics to Choreography.” Information Design Journal 23, no. 1 (2017): 173. – 183.
You can see obvious examples of this in some of the Best Practice Showcase on our home page.
BTW, we are constantly on the lookout for Best Practice Design, Research, and Teaching in our field. But that's another threadd for another day…

David, thanks so much for sharing the paper. I found it interesting. I
agree with the idea of focusing on the interaction between information and
people. In this case, neither characteristics of artifacts (e.g. contrast)
nor the characteristics of people (e.g. inattentional blindness) would be
core design principles because they are not referring to the process of
designing the interaction between information and people. Do you agree with
that?
