산업디자인의 학문적 배경에 관한 연구 = A Study on the Academical Background of Industrial Design

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The academical context of Industrial Design is studied in order to understand how Industrial Design has been developed and terms of the academical context.
The process of academical development and the position of Industrial Design in the process is examined. Four kinds of disciplines are defined in terms of their approaches, and the ideal and the present relationships between Industrial Design and those disciplines are discussed through the DesMod (Design Model) : styling, production method, design methodology, and marketing. The history of Industrial Design is studied in terms of its academical context starting from Art to Technology, Science, and Humanics, coming from real world going to symbolic worold.
This paper concluded that the special quality that has distinguished designer from those who cannot visualize their ideas is being lost with the development of Industrial Design stressing not products itself but situation. The academical establishment of Industrial Design is urgently needed to meet ever-broadening role of Indeustrial Design in so called post-industrial society.
