A method for operating a user interface for a vehicle that is configured to present visible information and configured to capture user input, the method comprising:

• displaying information on a display portion of a display, the display comprising a two-dimensional display;
• displaying information on a three-dimensional display surface of an optical faceplate via a contact surface arranged to receive light emitted from the display and, the optical faceplate including an optic light guide material provided between the contact surface and the three-dimensional display surface, wherein the faceplate is integrated into the display such that at least one of an areal extension of the three-dimensional display surface and an areal extension of the contact surface is smaller than an areal extension of the display;
• determining a context according to at least one of the group consisting of a state of the vehicle, the information that is visible on the display portion, the information that is visible on the three-dimensional display surface, and user input captured by the user interface;
• displaying contextually dependent information such that the information that is visible on the display portion and the information that is visible on the three-dimensional display surface depend on the determined context;
• and
• depending on the captured user input, moving the information that is visible on the three-dimensional display surface to the display portion and/or moving the information that is visible on the display portion to the three-dimensional display surface.
