해석학적 차원에서의 디자인 함축성 변화에 대한 비교 고찰 - Angelika Jahr의 디자인사적 프레임(Top Design des 20. Jahrhundert)을 중심으로 -

Implication included in industrial design is shown as different patterns by contextual factors which interacted with different times, and reflects the content of Zeitgeist inherent in a certain situation. Early industrial design sought mass production system to respond to the demand of the middle class which increased explosively, and design implication during this period depended on mechanical production methods. After that, while a rapid industrialization was in progress, the appearance of synthetic stuff and a new trend of the times made unprecedented design implication possible. As a consequence, design image is determined by contextual factors playing a part in the process of development and design has different implications depending on different trends. Design implication means a product linguistic dimension or metaphorical character and content determining the image of product, and is closely related to design personality as well. Design implication is a relationship formed between function and aesthetics, and the intervention of contextual factors like society, culture, economy, technology, etc. makes design implication go through changes and repetitions. Therefore, if we understand contextual factors based on historical divisions of design and confirm changes and relationships of implication caused by the factors, we can predict the direction of future design development. For this purpose, this study intends to identify the content and transition trend of design implication in the 20th century, using a tool based on hermeneutics.
