This study suggest the development and application of the Interactive Design Toolkit as a participatory design method for general customer who are non-expert on design activity to participate in design process of mass customization. In order to let general customers to express their design needs, we have to make a familiar and direct communication method for them. And, customer's design needs should be transformed into digital media. This study define the Interactive Design Toolkit as a design tool for customer participation by direct manipulation of computer system for simulation of design needs by customer themselves. The Interactive Design Toolkit is based on a PC-based image perception system and its application. User can make virtual models in virtual space by manipulating physical objects in real world. And, The toolkit can be used in the field of participatory design for deliverer side customization, especially in system kitchen which is manufactured and distributed in modular system. More improved design toolkit for manipulating 3 dimensional shape is needed for consumer product design and car styling.

Many computer system; (or program;) have been desigoc>d without taking their users needs into accOlmt To provide a practical and comprehensive introduction to the design and development of user interfaces, desigrer (or developer) is suggested to analyze and evaluate requirements from the view point of users and to design more effective program;. The su~ect of this thesis is to analyze and criticize tre details of Wonder-land, that is a demo multimedia ill-ROM title, in respect to User Interface Design and Development. By applying the coocepts, teclmiques and ideas to a real life study and analyzing and criticizing it from the view point of users, desigrer lets the program revised and developed by users. For User Interface Design and Development purposes this tresis analyzes and criticize the characteristics of the program already made, the current user interface design, mental models and users learning about the program. As a result it is founded that the program requires to be analyzing and criticizing continuously from a cognitive point of view to design and develop it successfully.

A 'wicked problem' is something that is hard to notice and not easy to perceive. This study focuses on understanding the precise concept of wicked problem through studying the background that led to the introduction of the term wicked problem. On the other hand, for social innovation, which has recently become a hot topic, it is necessary to identify wicked problem. Social innovation means solving in an innovative way that is more effective, efficient and sustainable than existing ones. As the beneficiary is not an individual but a society, it is in line with the field covered by wicked problem. Therefore, the study introduces a case in which wicked problems are solved through novel ways, that is, design thinking. Through the case study, it was confirmed that design thinking helps identifying problems that are not revealed and contributes to social innovation. As a result, we hope that this research will contribute to help solve the problems that we need to resolve in our society by using design thinking.

The topic of 21st century's culture is the appearance of digital media. It made changes as big as the industrial revolution, and our society is now ruled by the digital media. The main objective of this study is to forecast the direction of current visual design education by researching and analyzing how the introduction of digital media is influencing the evolution of visual design's identity, which is an ever changing and developing science. Also, since the rain target of digital media is the young generation, the change in the method of expressing visual language is inevitable In fact, there have been a lot of changes in the methods of creating and distributing visual communication due to the introduction of digital media. In the past, most educational institutions of design had similar objectives, curriculums and teaching methods to provide education that prepares students for practical business. However, in this digital media era, the application and utilization of visual design are uncomparably diversified, and it is generally classified as interaction. The purpose of this study is to find a wat to train visual design professionals in this digital era. For this purpose, this study will identify a new educational system that fulfills the demands of this society by fusing the traditional education and the new digital education, and will suggest what an design education institute that is ahead of the demands of society should be like.

The thesis is a study of the information model for the information collection and systematization in the way of product design. In the past, the design was made by the designers hands, worked with the material directly, but today's product design, the material diverted to information, can be considered as it is made essentially through information collection and systematization processing. If the product design is considered the information processing, usually it means a qualitative change of the product design information, not a quantitative change of the information theory. A focus of the study is to grope for a way of changing the subject to information, dealing with when the product design intends to purposes, not the material, When a way of the product design was discussed to solve the problems rationally, in the past, if it is considered as quantitative, qualitative and organic methods and modeling as their means based on the process model, [analysis-generalization-estimation], are formal ism, the way of product design as information is that the product direction as a substance should go through the design information processing, making an alternative plan with the information model cycling to natural order. Because success or failure of the product design in the future depends on information as material.

폭발적인 편재성의 증가로 인해 테크날러지는 이제 인간에게 어디서든 접근 가능한 것이 되었음과 동시에, 모순적이게도 "보이지 않게" 되었다. 그러나, 이러한 모순적인 이중성은 필연적이며 테크날러지의 시대상을 바라보는 데에 더없이 유용하다. 어떻게 하면 이러한 테크날러지와 함께 살아갈 것인가\ulcorner (중략)

According to computer-based life style and computer networking system is generalized, the construction of information system based on the construction of database is one of the major jobs in the design field. The construction of standard database system is one of the major factors to build the information infra and develop design field as knowledge-base industry. However, the construction of user-based dassification of database is prior to that of standard design database system. This study presents the possibility of the construction of user-friendly and standard database system by studying the dassification system of database.

There are numerous possible approaches to an investigation of the evolution of modern design. the intent of this study is to inquire into the history of 20th-century design as modern project. The French Revolution and the Industrial revolution at the end of 18th century brought about a wide spectrum of social and economic changes in Europe. The bourgeoisie took the leading part in these reforms and they attempted to establish the new aesthetic value of items of everyday use. The turning point in history led to the advent of modern design. This study attempts to provide a conceptual overview of significant stags in modern design's development this paper, it is hoped, will provide an opportunity to place modern design in a social and aesthetic context.

범주화(categorization)은 제품디자인에 있어서 매우 중요하다. 범주화의 유형에 따라 소비자의 감성이 다르고 감성의 차이에 따라 디자인 컨셉 및 디자인요소가 다르게 배합되어야 하기 때문이다. 특히 요즘처럼 제품라인이 확대되어 제품의 차별화가 모호한 경우에는 범주화과정이 필요하다. 즉 감성의 유사성정도를 바탕으로 정확한 범주를 정하고 컨셉화하여 소비자 지향적인 디자인을 제공해야 하는 것이다. 본 연구는 특정의 제품범주(장) 안에 유사한 하위 범주(고추장, 된장, 청국장, 쌈장, 간장)를 구성하고 있는 장류제품전체와 고추장, 된장, 청국장, 쌈장, 간장제품에 대한 소비자의 감성을 추출하고 그 유사성정도를 바탕으로 고추장, 된장, 청국장, 쌈장, 간장의 범주를 결정하여 디자인방향을 어떻게 결정해야 할지를 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 장류제품을 연구대상으로 한 것은 장류제품이 한국인의 식탁에서는 가장 기본적이고 중요한 제품 중의 하나이고 또 현대화시대의 라이프스타일과 환경의 변화로 시장이 확대되고 있기 때문이다. 실증연구는 전북지역과 서울지역의 소비자을 바탕으로 이루어졌다. 본 연구는 학문적 측면과 실무적 측면에서 제품디자인에 대한 다양한 통찰력을 제공할 것이다.

Developing games is a popular work in itself and a field of commercial development. It also occupies an important position in the design field as well. Because the game has a high commercial value and a design role in the game. This study examines the interface in terms of usability evaluation to see how to design the interface that corresponds to the appearance of the game. For this purpose, the previous research is examined and the interface elements derived from the survey are used as questionnaire items. The results of this study are expected to help guide the design of game interface design.
