Despite of the importance of design, relatively little research has been conducted on consumers' behavioral responses to product design and especially, the empirical studies which are related to consumers' psychological responses to product design. Understanding of the relationship between the response to product design and brand image or brand equity is limited. This research investigated the effect of the design image which can be formed by the response to product design on brand image and equity in two kinds of product types (utilitarian and symbolic product). The result shows that the product design image has a strong effect on the brand image in both products. Design image of the product influences brand equity in the symbolic product. However, there was no significant effect of the product design image on brand equity in the utilitarian product. In addition, the research found that brand image has a strong effect on brand equity in both products.

오늘날 소비자에게 있어 제품의 이미지는 제품을 선택하는 중요 기준이 되고 있으며, 기업의 제품개발에 있어서도 제품의 이미지는 품질과 성능 못지 않게 매우 중요한 요소로 자리잡고 있다. 디자이너의 입장에서 성공적인 제품디자인의 개발을 위해서는 소비자가 원하는 이미지를 정확하게 파악하고, 그 이미지를 디자인에 충분히 반영해야 할 것이다. (중략)

디자인 프로세스상에 이미지를 중심으로 하는 시각언어를 통한 디자인 컨셉 커뮤니케이션은 이미 여러 디자인분야에서 여러 가지 방향으로 진행되고 있다(스타일 스케치보드, 이미지 맵, 컬러맵, 캐털로그 리뷰 등). 그러나 대부분의 경우, 디자인 리서치에 사용되어진 이미지들은 리서치 이후 저장되지 않고 폐기되어지기 때문에, 새로운 디자인 작업에서 재활용되어지지 못하는 프로세스상의 단점을 가지고 있다.(중략)

This study is on the strategy for establishing successful corporate brand image, by understanding the need for increasing brand value based on the level of brand recognition. In order to carry this out, the PICS (Product Image Concentration System) is suggested, which includes Brand Image Analysis on a high-level, Product Image Programming based on the result of the image analysis, and Product Image Coherency Assessment and Management, resulting in setting up a guideline for gaining competitive advantage and brand management. Brand Image Analysis is a method that utilizes image association to understand brand disposition by analyzing the association pattern among available visual materials to measure the corporate and brand image inclinations. As the next step, Product Image Programming establishes design philosophy and principles based on the analysis of brand image, and the Visual Programming is a process for visualizing the intended product image direction. Lastly, Product Image Coherency Assessment examines whether to incorporate design philosophy and principles or not to arrive at an agreed evaluation criteria for developing designs coherent with the brand image. The PICS (Product Image Concentration System) is a practical method for increasing a company' competitive advantage and managing brand. The expectation on this system is to provide a guideline for applying brand image in design process more objectively. For further study, diversification of image spectrum based on expressive keywords and comparative analysis on images as well as a product image interpretation program to understand the order of visual materials will be necessary.

As the cultural importance of local environment has been increasing, interests of local residents for city design has also increased. City design can inspire local residents' pride and redefine the city image to both local and outside world. Therefore, this study analyzes the city's(Pohang city) status, environmental characteristics, and local residents' design image preference; and based on the analysis, this study suggests standard design for public facilities that constitute "streets", that can realize the city image identity. For the suggestion, scenery image and public facilities status of the twenty-four areas in the city were analyzed. Also, to decide the design direction of public facilities that can constitute the city's consistent ideology, thoughts, and image, design preference factors for public facilities by local residents were surveyed and analyzed. The design guidelines and a standard design were established for total of thirty-one public facilities based on the analysis. The outcome will enable provision of communication media to express the charming city image and also of material that can be reflected in the integrated city scenery project in the future.

Currently, The new wave of information technology has enormously influenced every field. In the Held of design, it is time to strive possible efforts in order to accumulate the design-related knowledge by maintaining, managing and controlling design information in a systematic manner, getting out of the old stage of mere use of data itself. Due to remarkable progress in communication media and speed, and file compression technology, text-centric data has been shifting to multimedia data such as image and motion picture. So it is currently required that methologies be developed to effectively utilize the related information. With respect to the processing of image data, it is certain that the optimal method should be come up with reflecting the unique characteristics and utilization of image data, apart from the traditional way of processing and storing the legacy text-based data. The study suggests the system of indexing and implementing design image information through the case of analyzing design image data, abstracting data elements of image itself, and finally applying it to building image-oriented database for use.

The purpose of this study is to provide the design direction based on consumer sensitivity through the structure between product design preferences - sensitivity image - design elements. For the purpose, we selected men's shaver products for this study subject and collected 164 shavers' pictures released between 2001-2007 years. Then, we carried out a pilot test for collection of sensitivity images about shavers, made a survey using semantic differential method and analyzed the survey. According the result, consumers preferred the sensitivity images "luxury, attractive, stable", design elements satisfied the preference images were "form of body is not a circular arcs or a polygon, material is steel, button is push style, and a color of body is not brown." This study can provide a base of the causal relationship between design preferences - sensitivity image - design elements and a design process to predict consumer sensitivity-oriented design.

In the glocal era, the competition becomes more intense in regional development centered around cities rather than countries. This suggests that increasing the city's unique charms through a positive city image can allow the city to gain a competitive edge in the competition for regional development. In this background, this study would contribute to improving the positive image of Pyeongtaek City, presenting the value and development direction of the image it would pursue, aiming to develop a promotional design for the improvement of the city image. As the details of the research, this study recognized the city image as an efficient means of public relations of the city from its concept and necessity. Thus, this study conducted a survey on the analysis of status and image of Pyeongtaek City. This study would contribute to improving the positive image of Pyeongtaek City, presenting the results of the development of a promotional design of its administration and a plan for utilization in the manual, proceeding by stages.

Nowadays, technological differences between companies have decreased and products launched show more resemblance to each other. As an alternative plan companies started developing brands. The excellence in quality of a product from a company could be easily copied, but the formless value, brand, cannot be imitated easily. More importantly, in the globally competing generation the brand provides distinctiveness and gives a solution to the relationship between consumers. Also the design image takes a big part in a company's competitiveness. The design image that represents the company reflects the brand, and it reflects the image and the philosophy of the company. And the images of each product influence the brand. Also an effective delivery of a product image would give a synergistic effect on the brand. A company could build this design identity to elevate the brand. Therefore, the identity of design image reflects the brand. Therefore a study on the area of the absence and misled identity of design image is important. This study is fixed on the idea of, development of brand to increase competitiveness, and the affiliation of design image with the identity of the brand. This study, on the basis of preceding research and theoretical background, aims to find the design identity area focusing on the product design image of the product purchased by the consumer. Firstly, we need to examine the affinity of the product image from the consumer, and analyse the direction of images to offer a solution that could advance the design identity strategy.
