SPA brands have quickly expanded in domestic fashion markets as native SPA brands enter markets that foreign SPA brands previously occupied. It is important that each SPA brand establish its own brand identity to differentiate itself from other brands when SPA brand competition in fashion markets increases. This study investigates how SPA brands express brand identities through colors due to their importance for visualization strategies and brand identity. This study conducted a simultaneous literature study and case study. First, this study reviewed the theoretical background of brand identity and its relationship with colors as well as SPA brands by studying relevant literature and cases of domestic academic theses and data on Internet web sites. After reviewing the theoretical background of SPA brands, this study selected 4 stores of SPA brands (8SECONDS, H&M, UNIQLO, and ZARA) as case study targets and analyzed the stores' external appearance, interior and product colors. Store analysis divided colors into identity colors and trend colors with each SPA company expressing its own brand identity through: the store's external appearance (logo color), painted interior colors (ceiling, floor, walls, mannequins, hangers, equipment, and store-carrier bag), or trend colors (reflected in the store's main display hall or products). The results consider that each SPA brand sets the mass market as their target, and chooses the commercialization of latest fashion by selecting the latest trends in the fashion trend cycle, so its products do not reflect characteristics symbolizing the company's uniqueness and brand.

1953년 탄생한, 백설은 브랜드 수명주기 상 성숙기에 위치해 있다. 백설은 브랜드 쇠퇴를 미연에 방지하고 브랜드 수명을 늘리기 위해 2009년, 브랜드 노후화에 대한 예방책으로 로고와 광고 리뉴얼을 시도하였으나, 실효를 거두지 못하였다. 이후, 2011년, 독립 브랜드로서 재탄생을 맞아 로고의 변경과 리포지셔닝 광고를 집행하였고, 브랜드 이미지 제고와 더불어 브랜드 확장에 대한 의지를 나타냈다. 본 연구는 두 번에 걸쳐 단행된 백설 재활성화 캠페인에 대한 비교연구를 통해 성숙기 브랜드 재활성화 캠페인 전략의 핵심을 파악하고자 하였다. 연구결과 브랜드 재활성화를 위한 전략으로 브랜드 참신성을 최우선으로 하기보다는 브랜드의 본질을 벗어나지 않으며, 브랜드 자산을 토대로 브랜드 충성도를 굳건히 하는 것이라고 판단되었다. 특히, 백설과 같은 식품브랜드는 시간을 브랜드 노후화의 요인으로 판단하고 부정하기보다는 브랜드 자산화함으로써 소비자에게 믿음과 신뢰를 소통하는 것이 필요하다고 판단되었다.

The purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics and recent trends of Korean herbal medicine cosmetics brand logos and to shed light on the identities of herbal medicine cosmetics in Korea. Ultimately this study aims to seek ways to develop strategic global brands distinguished from other brands, and providing the basic data for such development. In order to investigate the characteristics of brand logos, the researcher of this study chose 11 Korean Herbal Medicine Cosmetics Brands marketed today and collected information related to the brands from their websites. The visual characteristics of the logos currently used by Korean herbal medicine cosmetics can be summarized as follows. Most brand logos include marks consisting of Chinese letters written in calligraphy styles to represent the brand information of'Korean herbal medicine.' As for colors, most brands use mostly black and gold to present luxurious images, or convey strong impressions through stark contrast between black, red and white, hoping to distinguish themselves from other cosmetic products. An analysis of the linguistic characteristics of herbal medicine cosmetics in South Korea revealed that most brands use associative and freestanding brand names which suggest that the user's appearance will improve by using the products they represent. Using such names that convey oriental purity and mysterious meanings, trying to capture the deepest beauty with the best quality, the brands construct brand images that are luxurious and high-class. Most of the brands currently used by Korean herbal medicine cosmetics employ components that emphasize the functional aspect of Korean herbal medicine cosmetics. To secure the status of world-class brands, however, it is imperative to conduct research on brand logos capable of establishing identities distinguished from others.

Handbags are a part of fashion and while their significance and value are increasing, research on this topic is lacking. This study defines handbags and categorizes the materials used for making handbags, sewing methods, expression techniques, and terminologies related to accessories. A total of 1,743 handbags that were released from the Spring 2020 to Fall 2023, Ready-to-Wear collections by 8 selected brands (Hermes, Dior, Fendi, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Gucci, and Alexander McQueen), were analyzed. Out of these, 732 unique designs, excluding those with only color variations, were studied. The most common sewing methods were 'Cut, sewing, and edge painting', 'Cylinder arm sewing', 'Cut, edge painting, and sewing', and 'Inverted seam', in that order. Slim strap designs primarily used the 'Cut, sewing, and edge painting' method, whereas the body, especially with narrow and hard leather, was best suited for the 'Cylinder arm sewing machine'. For expression techniques, the most frequently used methods were 'Quilting', 'Metal Eyelet', 'Embossing', 'Printing', 'Punching', and 'Weaving', respectively. The characteristics of each brand's production methods, expression techniques, and accessories were as follows: First, the exposure of logos and monograms is prominent. Unlike clothing, handbags often prominently feature the brand's logo or monogram. Second, signature quilting is a prominent feature. Quilting effectively conveys the brand's signature style, providing cushioning, volume, and pattern effects. Third, sustainable development is a growing trend. Brands are increasingly applying eco-friendly and socially responsible designs.

Recently, the replacement of creative directors of fashion brands has gained attention from both researchers and practitioners. This study selected three representative fashion brands whose creative directors were replaced in the last 10 years, and analyzed the changed characteristics of their magazine advertisements. Literature studies and case studies were conducted as research methods. The subjects of the case studies were three fashion brands - 'Saint Laurent', 'Louis Vuitton', and 'Gucci'. Magazine advertisements were divided into two aspects: fashion photo elements and layout. The former can be classified into three components: the presence of a specific situation, the background of photos and objects, and the atmosphere of models. The latter can be classified into two components: the logo style and pictorial color. In terms of fashion photo elements, the presence of a specific situation in magazine advertisements appeared differently, depending on whether creative directors focus on the brand's own identity or on their own concept of each season. Also, the background of photos and objects, and the atmosphere of models changed depending on the situation. In terms of layout, there is no dramatic change in their logo styles, for they want to preserve their long tradition. And the more a creative director pursues younger sensibility, the more black and white color effect are added towards magazine advertisements. This study has its significance in that it confirms the replacement of creative directors has considerable influence on fashion brands' images and their magazine advertisements.

본 연구는 모바일 애플리케이션을 통한 편의점 도시락 구매 과정에 영향을 미치는 시각 요소에 관한 연구이다. 연구 주제는 모바일 애플리케이션이라는 신생 환경을 반영한 편의점 도시락 구매에 관한 연구가 미흡한 점에 착안해 선정하였다. 연구 방법으로는 문헌 조사와 설문 조사를 활용하였으며, 선행 연구를 토대로 서체, 제품 이미지, 주조 색, 브랜드 로고의 4가지 시각 요소를 변수로 설정했다. 설문 조사 결과, 소비자들은 4가지 시각 요소들 중 제품 이미지를 먼저 식별하는 것으로 드러났으며, 구매 의사 역시 시각 요소에 좌우된다는 사실이 확인되었다. 따라서 제품 이미지는 소비자에게 도시락의 맛에 대한 기대감과 신뢰성을 동시에 충족시킬 수 있어야 하며, 애플리케이션은 소비자의 시선이 온전히 제품 이미지에 집중될 수 있게 디자인 되어야 한다는 결론에 도달하였다. 추후 연구의 보완 방향성으로는 비시각적 요소를 변수로 추가하거나 설문 대상을 늘리는 방향으로 검토해볼 수 있다.
