  • In recent years, as feminism has emerged as a main value in Korean society, related design studies are also increasing. This research archived domestic feminist design studies to provide researchers with a genealogy of feminist design research. The research defines 'feminist design' prior to the collection of domestic feminist design studies, and examine the British-American history of the feminist design studies as an origin of the term. As a feature of the period, the number of feminist design studies surged in 1999, and since the 2000s, an average of 5.1 studies have been published annually. As a feature of each field, there were a lot of studies in fashion, visual, architecture, design science, product order in the whole studies. Feminist design researchers accumulate discourse on a clear line of studies and hope that this research will be renewed in the not too distant future.

  • This study examined the categories and contents of technology that is recently influencing the fashion design. For this, the cases of global companies integrating fashion design and technology were examined, and the types of technology integration studies within the field of fashion design were analyzed through the trend of fashion-technology integration in domestic academic circles released since 2000. According to the case of global companies integrating fashion design and technology, various companies and fashion brands have released fashion products that are integrated with technology, and such integrations are developing up to the field of fashion shows and displays in addition to fashion products. The analysis of studies related with fashion and technology in the design field showed that domestic studies on fashion-technology integration were manifested as the types that applied various technologies to the fashion design. Such types were categorized into the studies that applied light-emitting technology, studies that focused on the integration of interaction and textile design, studies that applied response-perception, studies that used attached electronic devices, and studies that used autogenic bacteria. The fashion has less negative impact on body and environment compared with other areas, and therefore, is the best area for the experiments in IT, bio, and electronics areas and for the integration of fashion and technology. Moreover, studies on fashion that suggest the capability in developing and industrializing cases through the collaboration with other fields such as IT, bio, and electronics shall continue.

  • Currently in Korea, Researches on universal design have been actively accomplished in various fields as not only housing and public space, but also product design and education. The purpose of this study is to analyze previous researches on universal design and to identify its research trends which might suggest the future directions of the related studies. In this study, researches on universal design were analyzed to classify the types according to research area, objects and respondents. Two hundreds twenty one papers(journal articles, theses, dissertations, etc.) which were published in Korea from 1997 to 2008 were analyzed. The results were as follows. Researches on universal design have increased quantitatively and research topics have been diverse. In the 1990s, with the introduction of universal design concept, research area focused on space design, but since 2000 researches on universal design have been expanded to apply the fashion, product design and education. In terms of research objects, the studies about evaluation and case analysis have conducted more than those about principles and planning design. With regard to research respondent, the studies for the elderly or people with disabilities and those of all people including a specific target have conducted in a similar ratio. Previous studies were contributed to expand the topics of universal design and it is time to study the applications based on previous research results for utilization and dissemination of universal design. Also it is necessary to conduct interdisciplinary studies in the field of universal design.
