본 연구는 미국의 건축 및 조경공간 형성에 미친 일본문화를 파악하기 위한 기초연구로서, 일본문화 및 공간디자인의 특성과 미국건축 및 조경에 나타난 그 면모에 관한 것이다. 1853년 미국과 일본의 문화교류를 시작으로 일본의 예술과 건축이 미국에 소개되었고, 특히 1893년 Chicago에서 열렸던 Wor1ds Columbian Exposition에서 선보인 일본의 건축물은 당시 미국의 건축가들에게 영향을 주었다. 그후 일본의 공간디인은 건축뿐만 아니라 조경분야에도 영향을 미쳐 현재 미국의 공간디자인을 구성하고 있는 특성 가운데 하나로 자리잡고 있다. 필자는 미국의 공간디자인에 영향을 준 일본문화의 실재를 파악하기 위하여 한국과 중국의 문화와 구별되는 일본만의 독특한 문화적 특성을 고찰해보고, 미국 현대건축의 선구자인 Frank Lloyd Wright, Greece and Greene, Philip Johnson, Richard J. Neutra의 작품 및 조경디자이너인 Ethelbert E. Furlong, James C. Rose의 작품속에 나타난 일본식 공간디자인의 면모를 살펴보았다. 장래 이 분야의 연구에서는 미국문화의 특성이 고찰되어 미국과 일본의 두 문화가 비교 파악되기 위한 개념적 근거가 마련되고, 일본식 공간디자인이 미국에서 어떻게 이해되고 해석되어졌으며 미국식 공간 디자인으로 전환되었는지 살펴보며, 어떤 이유에서 일본의 공간디자인 양식이 미국의 건축 및 조경분야에서 문화적으로 일본보다 오랜 역사를 지닌 한국과 중국의 공간디자인 양식보다 커다란 영향을 주고 있는지에 관해 이해를 구하는 방향으로 연구가 수행되어야 함을 제안한다.

The aim of this study was to analyze the design characteristics of Chinese fashion designer Feng Chen Wang and interpret their implicit meaning from a neo-deconstruction perspective. A review of domestic and foreign literature, outlined the develop- ment of deconstruction and neo-deconstruction, with neo-deconstruction's aesthetic features termed 'traditional fusion', 'positive playfulness', 'open communication', and 'multiple inclusiveness'. These features informed an analysis of Feng Chen Wang's fashion design. Four key findings emerged. First, 'traditional fusion' combines traditional Chinese colors, items, handicrafts, and patterns with modern design to break down boundaries between past and modern, tradition and fashion. Second, 'positive playfulness' promotes creativity and fun, using bright colors, exaggerated accessories, and playing withthe composition of traditional clothes to create a positive atmosphere. Third, 'open communication' emphasizes design that combines practicality and creati- vity in response to consumer needs, incorporating the thoughts arising from individual experiences and interest in social phenomena. Fourth, 'multiple inclusiveness' breaks down boundaries of sexuality, hierarchy, and body shape, embracing various ideas of beauty and respecting uniqueness through design that are seen as available to all. Using a neo-deconstruction perspective, Feng Chen Wang provides novel product planning ideas for Chinese fashion brands and reflects the values and meaning of modern design pursued by contemporary Chinese designers.

According to statistics, the number of mobile payment users in China shows an increasing trend year by year. However, less than half of people over 60 years old use mobile payment. The purpose of this study is to explore the reasons for the low usage rate of mobile payment platforms among the elderly in China. Through literature research, questionnaires and interviews, the author found that the main obstacle for the elderly in China to use mobile payment platforms is acceptance barrier. Then, the user experience research method and technology acceptance model (TAM) were combined to construct a new research model and five hypotheses affecting acceptance behavior in the model were summarized. Finally, the Analysis of Covariance(ANCOVA) was used to test the hypotheses and found that satisfaction (SA), perceived usefulness (PU) and job relevance (JR) had significant coefficients of 0.001, 0.000 and 0.004 respectively, all of which were less than 0.05 and therefore had a significant effect on acceptability. The other two elements, perceived ease of use (PE) and self-efficacy (SE), did not have a significant effect on acceptability. Ultimately, a new user experience acceptability model was constructed to provide theoretical support for mobile payment platform developers and designers to develop products from the acceptability perspective, so as to develop more mobile payment methods suitable for elderly users and improve the acceptance of mobile payment by the elderly.

Artworks inspired by birds have consistently enjoyed popularity, both in the past and present. Designs featuring birds from mythology have particularly garnered significant admiration. Therefore, this study aims to develop into the jewelry design with bird motifs from "Sanhaegyeong", a representative work of Chinese mythology. The research analyzes the characteristics of birds depicted in "Sanhaegyeong" and investigates design cases inspired by these birds. Birds in "Sanhaegyeong" are broadly categorized into divine birds and monstrous birds. Divine birds are predominantly represented with diverse color combinations and unified tones, while monstrous birds are primarily expressed in contrasting colors such as red, green, and white. The study further scrutinizes the forms, colors, and symbolism of jewelry inspired by birds in "Sanhaegyeong". These works predominantly utilize various colors, green, and red. By integrating shapes and patterns relevant to the era associated with the origin of "Sanhaegyeong", designers applied them in the designs, taking into consideration the contextual background and the relevance of design forms. It is anticipated that these research findings will be valuable to designers intrigued by mythical bird designs.

This study investigated similarities and differences between 2D flat sketch, 3D virtual clothing and real clothing images. Flat sketch, 3D virtual clothing, and real clothing images of T-shirts and dresses were made. Questionnaires were prepared for fit evaluation, sensory evaluation, and location evaluation. A survey of 440 questionnaires was collected from Chinese women in their 20s and 30s. As results of the sensibility evaluation, 3D virtual clothing expressed real clothing images slightly more similar than a 2D flat sketch. As results of the fit evaluation of the dresses, 2D flat sketch and 3D virtual clothing were rated as slightly longer/wider, and real clothing images were rated as slightly shorter/narrower. The results suggested that presenting 3D images with avatars as 3D virtual clothing images will provide more accurate fit evaluation results.
