In the past 10 years, the luxury goods market growth has significantly outpaced other consumer goods categories. Its market value exceeded US $1.2 trillion globally in 2018. In response to this significant consumer demand, the product portfolio of luxury brands has been modified, as several products that previously were exclusive have now released lower-priced versions. This phenomenon is called new luxury. These new luxury products, however, have caused the democratization of the luxury that threatens the exclusivity of luxury brands. In this circumstance, luxury consumers are becoming disillusioned with the vulgarization of luxury goods and prefer exclusive luxury experiences. In order to keep pace with the changes in the luxury consumer needs and promote the brand image with a creative and luxurious connotation, luxury brands are increasingly associating with contemporary art through diverse channels. However, there is a lack of theoretical research investigating the main points to be considered when applying contemporary art to luxury brands and attempting effective brand communication. Therefore, this study aims to provide insights into the key issues for luxury brands when applying contemporary art for effective brand communication. An in-depth case study with the luxury fashion brand, Louis Vuitton, was carried out to better understand contemporary art applications and obtain analytical insights. Through the research, key insights were identified as follows: 1) setting a clear objective for art application based on an in-depth understanding for both the art and the luxury brand, 2) sending harmonized and coherent messages from all perspectives by using a variety of different communication channels, 3) providing a meaningful customer experience by considering the characteristics of contemporary art.

4차 산업혁명의 핵심 기술들이 럭셔리호텔에 도입되면서 호텔 이용자에게 새로운 제품과 서비스를 제공하고 새로운 경험을 할 수 있는 문화적, 체험적 공간으로 도약하고 있다. 따라서, 이 연구는 스마트기술이 도입된 럭셔리호텔, 즉 스마트호텔을 중심으로 기술 어메니티 서비스를 사용한 경험에 대한 호텔 이용자의 인식이 호텔의 신뢰와 만족도에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 향후 지속적 경쟁우위와 개선점을 끌어낼 수 있는 스마트호텔의 본질적인 요인들을 파악하였다. 또한, 고객 만족도를 극대화함으로써 해당 스마트호텔을 재방문할 수 있는 효과적인 호텔 마케팅 전략과 방안을 모색하는데 연구 목적을 두었다. 연구가설 검증을 위해 최근 2년 이내 스마트호텔에서 기술 어메니티를 이용한 경험이 있는 호텔 이용자를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과 의인화와 기술 어메니티 사용의도, 그리고 지각된 성능기대치와 스마트호텔 만족도 간의 관계를 제외한 모든 가설이 채택됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 연구 결과를 토대로 이 논문에서는 이론적 시사점과 실무적 시사점을 제시하였다. 스마트호텔은 다양한 스마트기술을 도입하며 빠르게 변모하고 있다. 따라서 지속적인 경쟁우위를 확보하고, 차별화된 호텔경영과 마케팅 전략을 수립하는데 있어 의미 있는 자료가 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between fashion brand image and store space image. To investigate this study further, one of the luxury fashion brands was selected for a case study and surveys were conducted to 200 participants. This study evaluates the factors of fashion brand images that customers associate with a brand before stepping inside the flagship store. Also it analyzes the factors of store space image after the experience of the flagship store. As a result of the correlation analysis based on quantitative statistic measures, the fashion brand image and store space image coincided highest with extraordinary, young and strong characteristics. According to the space elements of the flagship store, the relationship of the brand image with the store image was investigated. As a result of analysis, customers felt the high correlation with the facade among the architectural elements of flagship store. This resulted in that customers consider that the black box of the facade represents originality of this fashion brand as a concept of spatial elements. As a practical implication, companies should understand that the architectural design is a very crucial component in designing the flagship store, as it gives customers their first impression about a brand. The brand image is required to be integrated through the exterior design of the store. The final conclusion of this study shows that the flagship store provides a space where you can experience the corporate value and brand through the space of brand experience and share an emotional image created by the brand as well.

This study was conducted to corroborate the factors that influence consumer characteristics and technology acceptance on online luxury platforms, which are rapidly emerging as distribution channels for luxury brands. To this end, the relationship between the degree of technology acceptance and behavioral intention of fashion consumers on online luxury platforms and the effect on specific factors such as age and gender was investigated to see if there was a difference in behavior and use behavior. A survey was conducted on Korean consumers between the age of 20 and 40 who have used online luxury platforms and then, a statistical analysis was conducted. As a result of the study, performance expectancy and facilitating conditions, hedonic motivation, price value, and habit were found to have a significant effect on platform behavioral intention, but effort expectancy and social influence did not have a significant effect. Additionally, both facilitating conditions and habit were found to have a directly significant effect on the platform use behavior, and it was confirmed that the platform behavior intention also had a significant effect on the use behavior. As a result of confirming the moderating effect of gender and age, there was no difference based on gender, but only the relationship between price value and behavioral intention was found to have a moderating effect. It is hoped that domestic online luxury platforms will grow into channels with distinct characteristics and continue to develop in the luxury market by utilizing specific affect factors of this study.
