This research applies the 'feature-matching theory' to explore the relation between an object's spatial dimension and human cognition, taking Chinese kettle design as a case study to examine how the contours of a vernacular object dominate its identification. By manipulating the character of each component with computer 3D morphing and replacing methods, thousands of rendering are generated between one typical universal kettle and five typical Chinese ceramic. teapots for programming and testing people's cognition. It was found that 'modern' and 'revival' designs are not significantly relative, and the distinctively vernacular design in contemporary simplicity format is more popular than homogenous international ones.
