Summary: | 博士 === 中原大學 === 設計學博士學位學程 === 101 === The expansion of competitive market in developing market has brought opportunities to Taiwan’s industry, particularly in the changes to its industrial structure and transformation. Despite the influence coming from the diversified development of social science research, the integration of academic sectors, the changes to social ideology and the review of sense of values, design characters or concepts, have not presented a kind of systematic or theoretical study. Usually, design characters and concepts merely show various styles but coexist and thrive with each other at the same time. Therefore, through awarded international design, this study explored the new concepts and characters in designs and the composition elements and complications inside the concepts and characters. Aiming at Japan’s excellent design system, from the review of it to its core philosophy, this study pondered over the design topics and the trend of being internationally excellent design. The research methodology is using ground theory and trend analysis to examine the design concepts and assessment, by documentations, of those awarded works of Japan G-MARK during 1998 ~ 2008. The study conclusion included the activity development of extending design, the changes to design fields & assessment and the new era design concepts. From the aspect of individual design/work, in total there were nine design characters, which include vision, interaction, innovation, environment, integration, sense and usage, etc.
-> However, from the aspect of feature models during the studied period, features models include technology, social environment, human thinking, knowledge integration and multi-development, etc. In terms of composition elements of design concepts, the elements include ‘sensibility’, ‘integration’, ‘harmonization’ and ‘creativity’, etc.
Between various design characters and concepts, there are some dominant and subordinate elements, which also present different extent of relations, such as human thinking, social environment, psychology and technology, etc. Through these connections, more creativity and feasibility for future design could be inspired. In other words, design activity and development could be sustained. The changes to design fields and to assessment criteria and the inspiration for design concept in the future could be enlightened as well. The threads of thoughts in design characters, design concepts and in design research and industrial development are closely linked with each other. It is hoped that this study result could become a part of index or base for design or industrial development in the future.
