어포던스(Affordance) 개념을 기반으로 하는 현대가구디자인 연구

A Study on the Contemporary Furniture Design Based on Affordance Concept

Contemporary design asks for inducing the interactive behaviors between things and users, taking the human being’s position into account, not just the technological part. The furni-ture that does not consider the user’s position may cause an error of action, and as a way of supplementing this, this study would propose the application of the concept of “affordance” to furniture. First, this study would investigate the potential of the philosophy of Bauhaus as the basis for the generation of affordance and would then examine what the modern flow is like and what concept affordance is through the major scholars’ views and examples. Also, this study would approach from the cognitive psychological aspect of affordance to propose a meth-od for applying unconscious affordance to furniture. Through this, hopefully, this study would be helpful for a design by which designers can increase users’ satisfaction by promoting qual-ities, like the convenience and functionality of furniture in the future.
