In this paper, we focused on the trend of service design research. Our presumption is that many research deal in new industrial category which is different from current industry classification. Then we could define new service industry framework. However there are no clear new findings of service business structure from this servey.
We conclude that service design research is still on the way to be established research field. User experience is also close situation then we watch such related area to build service design as practical research field.

The number of users purchasing fashion-related items through e-commerce sites has increased in recentyears. In most cases, however, item search results are displayed as a list of images and it is hard to imagine the fitting and coordinates with other clothes. In this paper, we created cloth-only image data by mechanically extracting cloth regions from a large number of item images on e-commerce sites. And we proposed search inter face for fast browsing coordinates of tops, bottoms and shoes by displaying the extracted images side-by-side using carousel panel. Finally, we applied the proposed method to an actual e-commerce site and confirmed that proposed interface enhances

We proposed “Experience plot” to shorten a lead time to create user story by applying storytelling approach. To create user story, we utilize a story structure as an outline of the user story. The outline can be a plot by using the structure. And the plot make the story more impressive and persuasive. The experience plot can bring a plot to a user story. Preparing the plot first, then weaving anecdotes ont the plot, we can create qualified user story more efficiently.

This study investigates if information assimilation affects product evaluation considering various factors of product, and
Reality Sets (Uninominal-Binominal). Car images are used as stimuli. The experiment consists of item screening and product evaluation. Subjects are participated in both. Item screening aims to select subjectively preferred/non-preferred images per subject. The selected images are reconciliated and used as stimuli in product evaluation. The findings show that information assimilation by
Reality Sets influences product evaluation differently.

In the past research, spatial impression comes from phase difference between right and left side sound stimulation that is called "stereo effect".We found the result from comparative survey between stereophonic sound stimulate and monophonic sound stimulate. If spatial impression only comes from stereo-effect, we can see significant difference in evaluated value of spatial impression. However, there is no significant difference for them. This result shows us that spatial impression is not only come from stereo-effect.

The aim of this paper is to examine Th. W. Adorno's criticism of Kant's definition of function and ornament. According to Adorno, functionalism, that emphasized the integration of art and technology, was based on Kant's aesthetic. In Kant's aesthetic, function and ornament are absolutely separated from one another. Yet, according to Adorno, those two notions are historically interconnected. Function is based on ornament and reverts to it in its historical dynamic. Adorno criticizes Kant's paradoxical definition because it dose not account for the historical and dialectical relationship between function and ornament.

In the field of design, concept plays a significant role in the constitution of a design object. As a concept designates a goal for a design process, it has to be deliberately defined in order to maximize the functionality of the object. In other words, the concept should play a mechanical and an organic role at the same time. In their writings What Is Philosophy? Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari define the concept as a mechanical component that consists of sensory elements, each of which is itself a concept. We transplant their thought to the field of design as a tool capable of evaluating the sensory quality of the design object.

First, it is necessary to catch the skill of RTD scribing with two axes. One is the editing method of the contents told as words, and another is the skill of the graphic design which expresses it visually. The second point is that many variations are made by the combination of words and graphics about an RTD expressional level. A scriber needs to make the purpose meet and needs to use these expressions properly.

This paper describes a basic study on the emergent design system which occurs serendipity from interaction between man and machine. Serendipity is a natural ability to make interesting or valuable discoveries unexpectedly. There is a possibility to generate new design ideas if we can utilize serendipity. Therefore, we propose the emergent design system using serendipity, and perform experiments that pro-designers and pro-engineers design chair by using this system. Additionally, we interviewed them to assess the usability of this system. As a result, we showed the possibility generating new design ideas by using the proposed system which prompts the chances of getting inspirations and unexpected discoveries by using serendipity in the process of deriving solution.

A series of design training, post-training informal random visits, and online trading monitoring was conducted and analyzed. We found that curriculum should articulate craftsmen’s customs/familiarity and introduce another symbolic domain. A simply transfer of the conventional Design Principles and Creativity Icebreaker exercises would later create an odd feeling and hesitation instead.

In this study, we attempt to support selecting base motions by focusing on mimetic word. Mimetic word express sound, motion, and phenomena. Hence, we believe mimetic words can express deep feelings. Further, we created a database of base motions from the motion of natural objects; mimetic words are related to those base motions.

In principle, these are so-called V-shaped in accordance with the process of development. Software is executable knowledge be placed in the real world, and also must be considered to be the target of the design artifact. Use of software is a process of action and reaction by its execution. Through this, recognition and requirements are changing. In this paper, we propose a process of software construction and evolution process model called Lambda-V-shaped model considering the user feedback process.

This article focuses on how a furniture producer, Sanshiro Ikeda (1909–1999), revived Mingei in modern society, and it clarifies the level of creativity in his handiwork. Ikeda, who organized various types of furniture by its woodworking, which was distinguished by its detail, produced new Mingei furniture with a sense attained during reproduction, a sense that helps craftsmen to adequately modify parts of furniture and assemble them for durability. This sense represents the resistance against the standardization of modernism that links Mingei furniture to contemporary design.

This report is about the develop of Design education method. It is given good result to having an experience of realizing an Exhibition. We have realized 8 exhibitions by students for 10 years. Those exhibitions are about "The process and result to make Goat hut", "Universal design", "Diatoms", "Children and Future", "Millet", "Tree house", "Dark cloud" and "TOHOKU QUALITY". Those have given me many kinds of idea about Design education. And three point for better training are appeared. 1) Good experience about subject makes high motivation for exhibition. 2)It is important to communicate directly with visitor of exhibition for understanding own design skills. 3) Students whose had experience of making something with high quality, had challenged better quality exhibition.

This study referred to the four stages of creative psychological processes proposed by Wallas (1926), namely preparation, incubation, illumination, verification as the basis, and organized these stages into four steps of guided teaching. The subjects of experimental teaching were junior high school students, who were divided into experimental and control groups, to engage in "personal image design" creation experiment.This study used the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT) for the pretest and posttest. The comparison of the test results and the teachers’ evaluations on the works by the two groups of students were used to review the effects of guided teaching. The TTCT test results showed that the fluency, originality, elaboration, and flexibility abilities of the students in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group.

Understanding the users can contribute to creative design. Particularly, user behavior observation can explore potential needs. In this study, we proposed a method using episode description tool and video data
protocol. In a design idea experiment, we compared a group of participants using tool and a video only group. From the result of the analysis, in both groups, the design idea was considered from the presented video. Nevertheless, the group using the tool could watch video more efficiently. The episode description supported the exploration of user needs. Further discussion regarding episode description may explore needs more effi ciently.
