Technological artefacts express time periods in their visual
design. Due time, visual culture changes and thus affects
the design of pictorial representations in technological
products, such as icons in user interfaces. Previous research
of temporal aspects in human-computer interaction has
been focusing on particular interaction situations, but not on
the effects of design eras on user experience. The influence
of icon design styles of different eras on aesthetic and
usability experiences was studied with the method of
primed product comparisons. Affective preferences and
their processing times were analysed in order to examine
visual usability in terms of semantic distance and aesthetic
appeal of icons from different design eras. Aesthetic and
usability preferences of icons from different eras varied,
which allowed the investigation of the process in which
users experience icons. This examination results in
elaborating the process, for example the relationship
