## Summary
Information architecture must expand from clarity and findability to an ecological frame that includes embodiment and placemaking. Designers now use many information modes (visual, sonic, haptic, mechanical, linguistic) to shape meaning across digital and physical ecosystems. IA must define principles for these modes so designs support the full range of human information behavior.
