The role of local government is no longer having to refer to the central government those matters related to local issues, but having the autonomy to make to make decisions that aHect the cOi1lmunity, taking into consideration the particular characteristics of its locality, community opinions, funds and local eHorts to build a better local environment to live in. From this point of view, the role of industrial design is steadily increasing in each local communities. However, at present it appears that no concrete measures have yet been formulated for esigners' participation in the local community development. This is partially due to the lack of awareness by the local government and the lack of eHorts by designers. The primary consideration of recent local development in the form of industrial complex construction appears to be the revenue-orientated aspect of its development. Similarly, the staging of international events in local areas seem to bring out the negative side-eHects of administration. Thus, local problems and revitalization issues should be redirected from local government to local community initiated solutions. Similarly, local governments should instead encourage the development of small and medium-sized rprises than large coporations. And the subject of local development should proceed with the 'software-concept' as its core constituent. Based on these current situations, this study examines the important role of industrial design and proposes a new direction for revitalization of a local area.

The comparative analysis of people returning toward general village and sub-urban residential complex in rural has been done to figure out the settlement environment. And the status analysis targeting the people returning to rural areas and original residents who live in general village have been done to figure out the actual state of the community. As a result, people returning toward sub-urban residential complex in rural moved for something else, while people returning toward general village in rural moved with the purpose of farming. Like this, the aims of moving into rural areas show difference. There is little conflict between people returning to rural areas and original residents, but some people have an intention to move the other place due to the conflict with original residents. So the community revitalization is needed for the active responses and suitable adaptation of them.

In a situation in which rural areas are declining, local governments are seeking to revitalize areas by place marketing. Place marketing, defined by various efforts to promote the image of a place, has been used as an economic tool. As a result, the image has been over-promoted and marketing has been driven in a perfunctory manner, so individual residents' lives and experiences have been ignored. Thus, in addition to the traditional types of cultural place marketing and economic place marketing, this study established a 'project for rural revitalization of Hwayang-eup' so that it could be applied to political place marketing aimed at inducing internal investment and improving the welfare of local residents. To implement this project, the concept was set up as building network organization, sustainable development and symbiotic relationship, and various H/W and S/W plans were developed. First of all, in terms of political place marketing, the Hwaeyang Oulim Center was constructed to strengthen the capacity of local autonomous organizations. In terms of cultural place marketing, we explored cultural resources at the village level and created a small community space. In terms of economic place marketing, the landscape around the main street and the township was reorganized to create a cultural business space for urban and rural exchanges. The reinterpretation of place marketing seen through this project was first, it was more process-oriented than results, second, it was important to induce the community-participating village-making project, and finally, the role of experts was important to expand the community movement.
