Abstract |
(Purpose) The dichotomy of `producing & consuming`(the distinction between designer and consumer) has been collapsed in contemporary era. With this change, the role of the user in design has also been changed from `passive recipient` to `active creator`. This paper looked into user`s commitment in design, which is one of main design paradigms of 21st century. (Method) This research was done by literature review and case analyses. (Result) First, psychological theories regarding the motives of user`s commitment in design were studied. Based on Flow Theory, this paper suggested that those psychological motives are self-realization need, social need, and control need. Second, this paper analyzed design methodologies which induce user`s commitment in design. User`s commitment are becoming a participation to a total process (compared to a partial process), in a direct way(compared to an indirect way), by a user-led process(compared to a user-assisted process), and with an experience-oriented attitude(compared to an outcome-oriented attitude). This paper concluded that users of 21st century are evolved from the passive consumer to the active creator, working `with` the designer. |
