This paper presents plans to develop cultural archetype into a cultural industry. Though, various types of cultural products are being developed, they're not very popular to consumers and has very limited market. Reason for that is, most of these products are simple replicas of cultural assets or they are focused solely on restoring the traditions without considering trend. This study was focused on patterns found on the relics from mausoleum of king Mooryung of Baek-je. Main focus was the meaning of important patterns as generalized representation of traditional and emotional value. In addition, the study was done with the idea that developing the design of cultural products should be presented in modern style while carrying the traditional value and the story telling elements. The order of developing the design should be, first, forming process based on its original form and the elements, and developing a design motive based on the story the pattern is carrying. Then develop sample products with the motive.

Every car manufacturer desires to reduce the new car development time spent in improving the safety, NVH, lightweight, reliability and environment friendly features of the car. Other considerations such as planning, exterior and interior styling, packaging, color, and material selection increase the complexity of the car design process. This paper proposes a personal DDP (Digital Design Process) to utilize the engineering analysis and design/styling software for car design. DDP can be efficiently used by a team of car research center or a studio with small number of engineers, helping ordinary engineers becoming ambidextrous in design as well as engineering applications. The concept model starts from idea sketch, rendering, and 3D surface model with CAS (Computer Aided Styling) to the final safety estimation by using proposed DDP based on engineering technology (CAD, CAE). The concept model proposed a hydrogen fuel cell sports coupe which could be available within next 10 years. The proposed DDP can not only reduce the new car development time but also be adapted into designing of varied products such as aircraft, yacht, electrical equipment and sports gear.

The purpose of this research is to suggest a competitive design by producing functions and elements needed to users based on a research about device use and needs according to user behavior. We proceeded to the research aiming a design smart document-editing device design which can be used for business regardless of place (at office or home), targeting reasonable and individualistic users from twenties to thirties. By some ways for that, first, we selected target users and based on user interviews to get enough understanding for them. Second, we produced user needs by some troubles after establishing persona and deciding target users on the basis of the research. Third, we designed form-factor visualizing work, organized design spec by the produced concept, and we developed interaction design on the basis of this scenario. Fourth, we made paper prototype and conducted user test. As a result, our final design emphasizes mobile ability and simplicity to be suitable for reasonable individualism and is able to efficiently work input, editing, and output without complicated procedure. We could also prove the validity of the design through usability test.

The aim of this research is to develop communication model and tools that would help in incorporating user experience into information appliance product development. To do so, this research suggested three major modelling techniques, including user-experience model, design strategy model and experience product model. Using these modelling tools, any members in design teams (investigator and designers) will be able to communicate their own ideas and research results each other at any period of the product development process. Each tools have distinct factors that would help identify elements in the user research stages, idea generation stages and product development stages. To verify the efficiency of these models, the case study was conducted with final year students at their studio class. As a result, the benefit of using these tools were identified as 1) these tools accelerate the communication between user researchers, designers and engineers and 2) evaluation process of the product is much more dearer that before. and 3) various user research techniques can be explored.

The quality of the game can be evaluated by its fun and functional stability. Among them, the quality area for fun is the essence of the game, so it is a very important factor to be considered from the point of view of a game designer. Usually, fun games with high originality and immersion are designed in the early stages of development, such as idea generation and concept setting. At this time, making it possible to verify the fun factor of the game has an important influence on the success of the game. In this study, the case of using PIT technique when teaching fun element design to students who are starting to study game design was introduced and the effect was analyzed. It is expected that the PIT technique will be used more actively in the game design education field for high-quality and fun game design.
