The purpose of this study is to study the Central Asian costumes($1{\sim}7C$) and develop new design items and suggest new brand launching. Korean apparel industry has been suffering from imbalance of supply and demand caused by the sagging economy and too many apparel companies. Due to the several years of recession, clothing consumption decreased and foreign brand's market share got bigger. As a result, managing a company became difficult and it is time for Korean apparel industry to enter the global market. We need a brand with new image and design that has big potential of purchasing power not only in Korea but also in China, and furthermore in global market. But even nearby Chinese market already became very competitive. One way of approaching Chinese fashion market is to find something special, for example, their historical background. Central Asian culture and costumes, a part of China, has both Eastern and Western culture. No other apparel industry had interest in the Central Asian costumes yet.

The increasing interest in environment-friendly products brought the new so-called 'health furnitures. 'Recently health-friendly-furnitures have gained a larger share in the furniture market, but the method of making health furnitures is still stuck in the primitive stage. For example, a bed with a stone or ceramic plate is one of the most famous health furniture to date. It needs a design fairly different from an ordinary bed that uses a mattress, but there has been little development on how different it would be. Therefore the purpose of this study is to develop a new design for a newly designed stone bed to make it n)ore competitive in the market. Its basic concept is to make an high-tech but human friendly bed. It should be natural and minimal, and it should have a royal grace on it. We worked on how to maximize every requirement and applied on it. Lastly, we had an eco-friendly final touch on our new bed with environment-friendly natural lacquer, so it could discharge volatile organic compounds such as formaldehyde as little as possible.
