Recently, one of the outstanding characteristics in design field shows that design is combined with marketing. However, one thing shouldn't be overlooked that original marketing theories are not able to be applied to design in itself because of difference between marketing mind and design thinking. This premise leads the purpose of the study to aim to establish academic frameworks of design marketing by re-organizing conceptual elements of design marketing which can be more suitable for design environment. The study leads to review emergence backgrounds and circumstances of design marketing regarding the disciplinary characteristic of design. Then it examines fundamental concepts of traditional marketing. Next it, based on research results above, suggests the 4Cs as conceptual elements of design marketing which might be fit for design environment. Last it proposes 4C Mix which can be effectively applicable in design development process by restructuring newly suggested conceptual elements synergistically. The study result contributes to several implications in academic and practical perspective. First, it recreates theoretical concept elements of design marketing based on elements of traditional marketing area. Second, it suggests market-oriented framework which can be practically applied in the design development process by designers.

Design education has been developed on the basis of higher education and continuing education for professional designers. This professional education has been regarded as a top priority in order to establish the discipline of design and status of designers in the society for the birth of design as a new discipline. Education of designers, however, should not be limited within the professional education led by higher education system. In order to educate designers having the competitiveness for the 21st century, it is necessary to expand the range of design education from higher education to general education by developing new programs. This paper is designed to investigate the importance and characteristics of 'Design-Based Education' by emphasizing design educational methods which are applied to the general education. As case studies, the current educational situations of England and United States of America are analyzed on the basis of their efforts and children's education programs. This study will provide the fundamental guideline for the development of K-12 design education in Korea.

The present study is an analysis of the process and affects of interior design accreditation by FIDER(Foundation of Interior Design Education Research) in the United States. Due to the consequences of becoming a member of WTO(World Trade Organization), currently Architectural programs in Korea are seeking ways to set up this accreditational system. The history of interior design education has always been closely interconnected with architectural education, moreover the educational system in Korea has long been affected by that of the United States. Therefore, the author believes that it is crucial for interior design educators to understand the meanings and affects of accreditation system in order to be prepared for this globalization. This paper analyzes the accreditation system between Architectural and Interior Design programs in the United States with that of Korea. It also presents an In-depth study of FIDER accreditation process in the interior design program at Kansas State University, where the author has participated as a preparation member. Thus hope to serve as a guideline for self evaluating interior design programs in Korea.

최근 많은 건축가들이 파라메트릭 디자인 도구에 관심을 가지고 형태에 대한 다양한 실험을 하고 있는 것과는 달리, 구조 엔지니어들은 이에 적절하게 대응하지 못하고 있다. 현재 파라메트릭 모델과 구조해석 프로그램사이의 자료교환을 가능하게 하는 인터페이스가 없는 것이 주된 원인이다. 따라서 구조 엔지니어들도 자유롭게 파라메트릭 방법론의 장점을 활용한 모델을 생성하고, 그것을 구조해석에 바로 사용할 수 있도록 하는 일이 오늘날 구조계가 당면한 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 파라메트릭 모델로부터 구조해석 모델을 자동으로 생성하는 인터페이스의 실무 적용가능성을 살펴보기 위하여, 파라메트릭 디자인 도구의 특성과 확장성을 검토하고, 라이노를 기반으로 하는 구조해석 모델 생성 플러그인을 개발하였다.

CAD System, which has been actively applied since late 80's, has become one of the most important tools in architectural design and has taken the central position in practical design processes. However, it is widely known that AutoCAD, the market-leading general-use CAD System, resulted in hindering the standardization of CAD System. This has been causing problems in communication among designers and inefficiency in their uses. The standardization in CAD System becomes an urgent issue. The study attempts to build up fundamental principles in standardization of CAD System, and to suggest a combinational model of international and domestic standards.

Seidel (1981) asserted that, information produced by researchers was not being used by practicing professionals because the researchers and designers did not share the same perception of research. Nearly all of his research subjects indicated that other researchers(rather than designers) were their audience. Furthermore, criteria that were valued in academic research such as originality or choice of appropriate methods did not increase quality of information in the eyes of the designers. Instead they valued research results with relevant information, check lists, and design guidelines. More than two decades have passed since Seidel examined the gap between research and practice. Scholarly research by academics continues to be a major prerequisite to tenure and promotion. While these expectations may increase the quantity of research, the question might still be asked, "Are the data enhancing the quality of design？" The present study is an analysis on how interior design practitioners perceive and perform research. By using Seidel's research as a framework the author has developed a questionnaire in order to understand meanings and affects of research in the practitioners' field. Thus hope to serve as a step towards strengthening collaborative modes between the two communities, interior design academic and practice. practice.

Design is one of diverse human communication activities. Development of technologies has led to execution of more active design communication functions, stirring social and cultural changes. The concept of design communication has become stronger by overcoming the limitations of verbal communication and expanding the methods of communication. These social changes are highlighted In the design of modern space. Even though communication in interior design activities is so important, detailed studies on communication of each entity are still very insufficient. Design communication refers to tools and activities for overall communications in the design process. In design activities, relevant communication is indispensible. Therefore, studies on practical communication methods are essential for accurate communication of content that has to be shared in the results or in the process of obtaining the results, rather than only focusing on the future techniques and functions of design. In other words, improving the efficiency of interior design communication requires establishing a communication relationship structure of each entity, which calls for proper expression methods depending on each entity. Therefore, this study is aimed at exploring efficient expression methods in line with the relationship structure of each entity in the interior design process.

BIM was activated by applying it necessarily to the government ordered construction of more than a certain amount of money in architecture and construction field of Korea before and after 2010. An architectural education using BIM at college in Korea has been doing in accordance with this trend but is not too different from the existing interior design studio. Also, a new design curriculum based on BIM that provides a digital design concept and a digital working environment is increasingly being demanded in modern society. A digital-based design process is required not only in the field of architecture but also in the field of interior. Therefore, this study suggests the prototype of the interior design studio based on the field practice can apply BIM design, not the unfamiliar interior design studio pursued in the field practice to understand easily the environment of interior design process BIM is essentially seeking.
