This study investigated the casual jacket design preferences of women aged 50s and 60s and suggested a prototype design for functional clothing. All age groups liked the casual jacket with a length between the waist and hip, a convertible collar, and a single-breasted design. Those in their 50s preferred fitted or semi-fitted casual jackets while those in their 60s preferred semi-fitted casual jackets. Although, there were significant differences between the preferred jacket designs and ready-made brand jacket designs, most brand jacket designs were casual, semi-fitted, middle-hip length, single-breasted, and with stand-rolled or convertible collars. The analysis of the sleeve styles in brand jackets showed that consumers needed designs that are more decorative. Fashion designers for senior citizens need to design elderly clothing that is comfortable, fashionable, functional, and considers a universal design for ease of clothing function. It will also make the senior citizen fashion market more appealing to consumers. To provide jacket designs for senior citizens, we suggested casual jacket designs for embedding a functional device as well as a new jacket design library for women in their 50s and 60s.

Advanced function has been considered to be the most important aspect of the cellular phone. However, leading companies are now implementing the fashion branding strategy which stresses both high technology and appealing design. By means of the conjoint analysis, this research focuses on identifying the preferred design profile related to style of the key cover, color and texture of the case, and presence or absence of the noctilucent material coated on the part of surface. We also evaluate the relative importance of factors to determine the design concept of new cellular phone. Results indicate that consumers most prefer the silver-colored, sliding key cover phone with soft and noctilucent surface.

The possibility of eye exposure for workers participating in manufacturing of nanoparticles or consumers using products containing nanoparticles has been reported, but toxicity studies on the eye are scarce. In this study, cytotoxicity of five nanoparticles including silver, ceria, silica, titanium and zinc were tested using Statens Seruminstitut Rabbit Cornea (SIRC) cells. When cells were treated with nanoparticles with concentrations of $1-100{\mu}g/mL$ for 24 hr, zinc oxide nanoparticles showed higher toxicity to cornea cells. $LC_{50}$ of zinc oxide nanoparticles was less than $25{\mu}g/mL$ but those of other nanoparticles could not be calculated in this test, which means more than $100{\mu}g/mL$. Generation of reactive oxygen species was observed, and expression of apoptosis related biomarkers including Bax and Bcl-2 were changed after treatment of zinc oxide nanoparticles, while no other significant toxicity-related changes were observed in cornea cells treated with Ag, $CeO_2$, $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ nanoparticles.

The purpose of this study is to figure out the profiles of eco-friendly finishing materials and intoner products through content analysis on the advertisements of three domestic interior design magazines, which have been published for 4 years since 2002. The amount of advertisements has been continuously increasing due to the public concerns on well-being. Finishing material types absolutely took the greatest proportion (92.8%), while products such as furniture and household equipments were only 7.2% among the advertisements. Charcoal, natural jade, yellow soil and nano-silver were the frequently mentioned health-related components in the finishing material. Only 35.7% of the finishing materials hold certification on indoor air quality. Among the interior products, phytonchid in air cleaner was the only advertised component related to health. In conclusion, controlling pollutants of indoor air quality, such as HCHO, VOC, seems to be the big issue in both materials and products due to the concern of Sick Building Syndrome. However, more scientific and objective guidelines are necessary for consumers to live in healthy interior environment.

Purpose: In our country, the aged population accounted for about 13% of the total population in 2018. In addition, it is expected to exceed 20% in 2026, entering an super-aged society. However, the senior welfare housing in Korea currently accommodates only 0.08% of the elderly population, and the increasing amount of the elderly population is very small. Accordingly, this study aims to analyze the causes of supply shortages and to propose directions for revitalizing the supply of welfare housing for the elderly in the private sector. Methods: First, the causes and problems of the poor supply of welfare housing for the elderly were analyzed. Next, the direction was proposed through institutional and case-by-case surveys and expert interviews. Results: It suggested directions such as legal and institutional improvement, inducing the use of REITs, preparing policies to support consumers, allocating a certain percentage of senior welfare housing for the elderly in the reconstruction project, improving awareness of monthly living expenses, and re-discussing sales permits. Implications: Experts said that the direction proposed in this study can have a positive effect on supply activation. However, there were many opinions that re-discussion on permission for sales was necessary due to the excessive impact of the inability to sell. In addition, further research is needed for specific application of the proposed direction.

지금까지 스마트 폰 사용자는 Innovator, Early Adopter가 주 고객이었다면 가격 안정화와 인터넷을 즐기는 노인세대가 등장하면서 소외계층에 대한 중요성 및 체계적인 분류와 집중, 전략의 필요해졌다. 그리고 노년계층만으로 국한된 소외계층이 아닌 자신의 의지에 따라 사용자가 될 수 있는 잠재적 사용자에 대한 세분화와 그들을 확보할 수 있는 UI에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 그들을 확보하기 위해 iPhone의 스큐어모피즘, MS 메트로UI, Google 머티리얼 UI가 변하는 과정에서 UI의 기본구성요소(WIMP)가 어떻게 적용되어 왔는지 분석하였다. 분석결과 스큐어모피즘은 완전히 새로운 것이 아닌 사용자에게 외면 받았던 부분을 보완 개선하는 방식으로 천천히 잠재적 사용자를 확보하고 있고 메트로 UI는 터치UI개념으로 처음부터 잠재적 사용자를 고려하였지만 새롭고 획기적인 UI로 그들을 확보하지 못했다. 하지만 Google의 머티리얼 UI는 스큐어모피즘 UI와 메트로 UI의 단점을 보완하고 가성비를 내세워 잠재적 사용자 중 최종수용자까지 확보할 수 있는 UI로 발전하고 있다. 따라서 잠재적 사용자를 확보하기 위해서는 스마트폰을 왜(why) 사용해야 하는지에 대해 사용자 스스로가 공감할 수 있도록 해야 하며 직접적인 대화와 관찰의 피드백을 통해 더욱 체계적인 UI연구로 접근해야 함을 제언한다.
