%X Understanding the structure or organization of an interface is important to make sense of the information presented. This is essential especially when involving information on a large display. The desired information architecture in terms of arranging the information becomes critical and pervasive. The huge interactional space conceives a challenge to the design process. This paper investigates a suitable information structure of a museum application on a large display in order to support navigation. A user study was conducted with ten participants interacting with a museum application interfaces, running on a Microsoft SUR40 tabletop. The study findings suggest that a suitable information structure for a large display depends on the purpose of the navigation. A scattered image concept is more appropriate for specific object finding while a structured tree concept is for information finding in a virtual environment. These findings could be useful for the development of museum interfaces on a huge display. © 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
