Through the participation of the World Exposition held in Vienna in 1873,the new concept called 'fine arts applied to industry' was introduced into Japan. At first this new concept was translated by using the new word 'Bijutsu'. In 1875,after the closing of exposition, the word 'Koujutsu' took place of the word 'Bijutsu ' to translate the new concept in the Japanese offiicial reports of the Exposition. The article in the official report Number 21 titled "Koujutsu-Hakubutukan-Hieki-Ron" was the translation of the Austrian Official Exposition Report on the Exhibits Group 22. The historical value of this Japanese traslation is to refer officially to the significance of the new concept in the early days of the Meiji Era.

Tobacco and smoking first emerged in domestic historical records during the Keicho period (1596-1615). Though the Shogunate at first prohibited tobacco cultivation as well as the manufacture and sale of tobacco products, those efforts were not effective. Tobacco cultivation and production eventually spread from the Kinai area throughout the country and, by the mid 17th century, merchants who produced and sold shredded tobacco leaf began to appear. In this paper, I seek to clarify the signboards displayed by tobacco shops in the Kinai area.

When the origin of Art Nouveau is described, we will mention to name of Siegfried Bing. His first half life is as well known as Japonist. He opened a shop of L'Art Nouveau at Paris in 1895. Because nationalism was superior in those days, as for the exhibition mainly on foreign new arts, the reputation was bad. He changed a policy of the exhibition. In addition, he installed few ateliers in order to let works reflect his intention. At the time of Paris Exhibition 1900,he established Pavillon de L'Art Nouveau Bing. The interior by de Feure expressed the elegant style based on French tradition. His Pavillon was successful, but the his business was not able to be successful.

Design process can be represented as a conversion process from keywords on design objective to physical form of it. From this viewpoint, idea sketches give us important clue to know what is the structure of creative thinking process. For this purpose, an experiment was held to know how the subjects created different images of design objects from different keywords. Five groups of subjects were assigned different tasks to design of streetlight with different keywords. From the results, we concluded that, in design process, designer took several abstraction levels of thinking way depending on the keywords. If the keyword gave designer a suitable abstraction level thinking, the possibility to get creative design would be improved.

We had two experiments to know how creative thinking was done. Firstly, a design task was assigned with two keywords of different difficulties in form making. As the result, designer seemed to change his thinking way depending on the difficulties of keywords in design process. Secondly, we assigned a task of "Design a chair which makes feel sad". As the result, different paths in a thinking way were shown. One was using metaphors of sad feeling and the other was using metaphors of concept of sadness. Most of creative results were seen in the former case. From these results, we concluded that the creative thinking required high level abstraction which had long thinking path with effort of thinking in drawings.

We advanced this research with other research to apply reducts to design development. At first, reducts for choice and reject were defined by analyzing data of cars which one subject selected from 67 sample cars, and data of each car's attribution of forms. Then, we ordered designers car styling design, which the subject will choose. Shown data were only choice/reject and 67cars' pictures. Analysis of these design proposals by the same attribution of forms showed that many of the same reducts for choice existed in them, and the same reducts for reject did not exist practically. Consequently, this suggests that application of reducts in rough set theory is useful and efficient for various stages of design development.
