This paper focuses on the bungalows in Beizhen city, Liaoning Province, China. Combined with their use methods, the survey records the configuration of outdoor space, the structure and layout of the main house, the configuration of indoor space, and the configuration of living facilities, to clarify the intentional characteristics of the house. The results of the survey and investigation are as follows:(1) Dwelling shows the life wisdom of both manchu and Han. (2) The living space in the Dwelling is constructed based on multiple layers of doors or screens to isolate and form a composite space. (3) The custom of respecting the old and respecting the men, the order of the men working outside and the women working inside, and the symbiosis with the gods are emphasized. But at the same time, the form and layout of the house can be set freely based on the needs of life to a certain extent. (4) Folk houses adapt to the climate with rectangular shapes, wide Windows, thick walls and heated Kang. (5) Materials are selected according to the regional characteristics of mountains, plains and lowlands.

This manuscript fully grasps the construction process and characteristics of “bungalows" in Beizhen, Liaoning Province, China. The following are the results of the survey and inspection. (1) The construction process and rules of the bungalow are known by most people, so there is no designer and paper materials. (2) Give priority to local materials and give full play to their advantages. (3) Due to the limitation of regional living conditions, there are many compromises in material selection, modeling details and wooden structure. (4) Mutual assistance between people is spontaneous, and this mutual assistance relationship needs the exchange of life to consolidate. (5) People of different age groups participate in architecture so that regional wisdom can be passed down. (6) The male master is in charge of things related to construction, and the female master is in charge of things related to housework. This family order is seen during the construction process. (7) People respect the understanding of the coexistence of human beings and gods in the world, communicate with them in the process of building houses, and pray for a safe home and a happy life.

The objective of this study is to clarify the characteristics and the history of spaces that enhance workers' sensibility and creativity, and induce knowledge behavior, by examining the common spaces in the Nikkei New Office Awards.
We analyzed the captions of the books introducing the Nikkei New Office Award-winning works by text mining to understand the design intent and design of the spaces. In addition, in order to quantitatively clarify the spatial composition, furniture, and finishes of the common space from the photographs in the book, we assigned each item to categories, and tabulate them by age group by every five years.
From the text mining, it has become clear that the common space is positioned as a place for workers to communicate by positioning movable fornituire, cafes and cafeterias. Also, There is a space to concentrate and to hold events end seminars. From the photos taken, it was determined that the number of furniture and wood finishes has increased over the years, and the number of plantings and finishes has diversified.

In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey to clarify the experiences that contribute to students' acquisition of Creative Competencies in design-industry collaboration projects. Seventy-eight students responded to the survey, and factor and correlation analyses were conducted on the data. The results were as follows. Students' experiences related to their acquisition of Creative Competencies were "gathering information necessary for group productivity" and "mutual cooperation among group members," which indicated their interactions with group members, and "feedback on productivity by collaborators," "provision of information on introduction by the collaborators," and "communication with the collaborators," which indicated their interactions with the collaborators. Additionally, students' relationships with teachers were less related to learning outcomes than their relationship with groups and collaborators. This suggests that relationships with groups and collaborators are important for enhancing students' acquisition of Creative Competencies through activities in design-industry collaboration projects.

This research analyzes the evolution of research themes related to Design Thinking in the academic field in order to gain an overall perspective. Analysis of 1,986 papers revealed 16 major clusters and identified a main paper for each cluster. The papers were divided into three areas. First, from 1991 to 2003, the main research was theoretical systemization research focused on the design process in industrial design. Research has evolved since then into the evaluation of projects based on design thinking. Second, research on the application of design thinking to the field of education began in 2004, and since 2015 has expanded into other academic fields. Third, research with the largest number of papers is the field of business. Since 2004 it has expanded to include a variety of industries. Today, organizational research and research related to the healthcare industry are rapidly increasing, and the application of design thinking to sustainability and policy making is a growing area of interest.

The applications of service design for human resource development are expanding, but the effectiveness of service design through the evaluation of internal transformation has not been clarified.
In this study, a learning material was created by applying customer journey map and service blueprint in accordance with HCD. The application of the customer journey map and service blueprint was useful as a way to deepen learners' understanding of the situation, including environmental factors, to identify issues that resonate with learners, and to efficiently combine the knowledge necessary for learners to perform actions.
Based on the evaluation results, the prototype was a teaching material that motivates learners by contributing to their motivation and helping them visualize the results of solving the problem and taking action. The methods used were found to be valuable as a new approach to the creation of learning materials.
