What is User Experience, anyway?

If Service Design supports the operations necessary to deliver a good customer experience, how can we break down what makes a good experience?

Enter: the UX Honeycomb, developed by Peter Morville. Why this model? Gathering UX resources is can be tricky — sometimes there is a private sector slant that makes them the resources incomplete, or sometimes downright irresponsible, for public service contexts. Public sector design needs to consider risk, harm, and accessibility for all vs. profit and competition (this is an oversimplification).
