The goal of this study is leading discussion on emotional design focused on product domain and approaching it through a practical way so that it'll be able to help designers in their real design work when they design products in an emotional way. Discussions on emotions are remaining on abstract levels and only focusing on 5 senses even though the importance of emotions are increased. But much more is needed to apply emotions in the product domain because these are not the proper forms for applications and they only cover limited parts of it. Therefore, in this study we proposed the notion of 'Emotionalized Product' and defined it into a practical level. We extracted 5 useful frameworks of 'Emotionalized Product(EP)' as a results; EP Media, EP Procedure, EP Level, EP Character, and EP Value. Then we clarified EP with these frameworks. After that, we extracted 2 frameworks: Domain Structure, and EP Opportunity, to combine EP with a real product. Finally we proposed the EP Design Process consisted of Inductive and Deductive Process based on previous work. It can be shared by designers as a base of designing system, and it also can be helpful to design products more successfully with an emotional approach.

Modern consumers tend to show value-oriented, image-centered, individualized, and emotionalized consumption behavior, not the consumers who are simply provided with products. Department store industry actively corresponds to the changing consumption behaviors of consumers and pays attention to Visual Merchandising(VMD) as a strategy to visually differentiate stores and sales environments. This study shows 6 parts of effective VMD; presentation of product, product display, color composition, planning of lighting, POP and sign display.
