Design Characteristics In Outdoor Seating Areas – A Study Of Coffee Shops In Hong Kong And Copenhagen, Mia Münster
IASDR Conference Series
Transitional spaces, or ‘in-between’ areas, those connecting the interior and exterior spaces of shops, cafés and restaurants–these are spheres of interaction between commercial and public spaces. In them, through the use of design elements, stores communicate the nature of their offerings, their services, and their values to the outside world; consumers, in turn, decode these elements as a part of their decision to patronize the store. Increasingly, these transitional spaces incorporate areas for outdoor seating. In these areas, parts of the surrounding neighborhood are pulled into the store’s sphere, while the store’s sphere is simultaneously projected into the surrounding area. …

More Than Human Empathy: A Caring Approach To Ecosystemic Design, Mariana Pestana
More Than Human Empathy: A Caring Approach To Ecosystemic Design, Mariana Pestana
IASDR Conference Series
This paper argues for a caring approach to design based on more-than-human empathy. It proposes that such an empathic turn can provide a useful framework for eco-systemic thinking and practice in design, because it takes into consideration the wellbeing and the rights of people but also that of non-human bodies. To do that, this paper reports on a study concerning the conception and delivery of a design Biennial, entirely created and experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, which gathered thinkers, practitioners, researchers and community groups to collectively discuss, scrutinise and rehearse the role of design in a post-anthropocentric, more-than-human paradigm.

IASDR Conference Series
The design direction is shifting towards new design landscapes with alive and adaptive aesthetic features and functions and confronting natural alternative designs. Designers, architects, and artists have proposed the exploration of emerging materials by exploiting synthetic biology, bionics, chemical technology, and material science to create new design alternatives with natural aesthetic features and functions. In practice, however, designers are not properly familiar with the potential applications of these emerging materials and their alive and adaptive aesthetic and functional features in product design. Thus, particularly in traditional product design development, the applications of these materials are untouched resulting from three hindering …

Snapping (Identities) Through Design Forward, Sara Iebole
Snapping (Identities) Through Design Forward, Sara Iebole
IASDR Conference Series
«Social norms are powerful. People will mostly do what they see others do. It’s how the human animal learns to succeed. What we learn from the curricula of conventional education pales in comparison to what we learn by watching the actual behavior of the teachers and students around us.» (Mau, 2020). This reflection, in relation to design as a discipline capable of enacting transformative processes in society - defining it through the formalization of roles and possibilities, as well as to stereotypes and forms of oppression - offers an inspiring perspective of the subject matter. In fact, Design is a …

Exploring And Facilitating Daoism's Contributions To Design Prototype, A Case Study From A "More-Than-Human" Social Innovation Project: Hokkhi, Jixiang Jiang, Shu Zhang, Yizao Wu
IASDR Conference Series
In the face of the current environmental crises and the emergent debate over how we as a species should respond to it, local-context discussions, research, and practice are rapidly growing in a number of regions. Within the confines of the design community, there is an ever-growing view of these discussions as representing a culturally diverse perspective on design, as opposed to the current Western-centric design shaped by modernism and capitalist market economies, and as representing the emergence of an emerging design scene of pluriverse. This study extends the concept of the oyster reef conservation project referred to as "Hokkhi," produced …
How Students Perceive Lecturers' Gestures? An Exploration In Gesture-Meaning Matching Toward Embodied Pedagogical Agent Design, Lai Wei, Kenny K. N. Chow
How Students Perceive Lecturers' Gestures? An Exploration In Gesture-Meaning Matching Toward Embodied Pedagogical Agent Design, Lai Wei, Kenny K. N. Chow
IASDR Conference Series
Many studies have demonstrated that meaningful gestures, such as the iconic and the metaphoric, may considerably assist students’ comprehension and enhance their learning engagement. Additionally, virtual lecturers have positively influenced students' online learning experiences. Yet, there seems to be no concrete evidence of how students recognize these gestures. Investigating the comprehension of lecturers' natural gestures from the perspective of students has the potential to inform the creation of embodied gestural pedagogical agents (PA). This paper conducted empirical studies investigating how students recognized and interpreted lectures’ gestures in real-life design classes. By analysing four sets of paired cases, which consist of …

Design Intervention To Aid Young Indians In Identifying Triggers Of Generalised Anxiety Disorder (Gad), Nilanjana Bairagi, Ajithsenb Selvadhas, Sowndarya Acharya
IASDR Conference Series
Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) is an emotional and fear-based, recurrent response to a perceived or real threat. It causes difficulty in dealing with every-day experiences. It afflicts 13.9% of the urban residents in India and requires a proactive approach to coping. GAD is not caused by stress but rather is sensitive to stress. Varying stimuli lead to automatic, unexpected and intense reactions called triggers. Awareness about triggers helps one understand their emotional thresholds and supports self-management. The existing literature provides a multi-variant perspective about nudges that cause anxiety. However, localised probing is minimal in India due to a lack of …

Graphic Standards In Graphic Heritage: Scope, Scale, And Unity Through Multiplicity In Islamic Design, Robert George Harland
Graphic Standards In Graphic Heritage: Scope, Scale, And Unity Through Multiplicity In Islamic Design, Robert George Harland
IASDR Conference Series
The concept of graphic standards is well-known across several disciplines. In design, it is most substantively understood in architecture, but its American origins present a limited aesthetic scope that favours classical architectural norms that overlook non-western architectural traditions. This paper explores their relevance concerning urban heritage and the emerging concept of graphic heritage and explores how the concept may be used to understand the value of repetition and frequency in Islamic art, architecture, and design. The research follows an exploratory hypothesis that seeks to describe and redefine some related concepts that will benefit a cross-disciplinary appreciation of cultural heritage and …
Preserving Theoretically-Grounded Functions Across Media Platforms In Interaction Design, Brian Sekelsky, Matthew Peterson, Cesar Delgado, Karen B. Chen
Preserving Theoretically-Grounded Functions Across Media Platforms In Interaction Design, Brian Sekelsky, Matthew Peterson, Cesar Delgado, Karen B. Chen
IASDR Conference Series
Designers often address the continuity of user experiences across various media platforms. Features are the focus of media development. But the media-dependency of features means that truly preserving the essence of one feature across media platforms, in a process of cross-media translation, can result in superficially dissimilar features. We describe function mapping as an aid in this translation, in which design features are derived from theoretical assertions, and in turn an understanding of underlying functions permits the translation of features to other media platforms. We demonstrate this in a case study of translation from a VR installation, to portable VR, …

Scalable Ehmi: Automated Vehicles-Pedestrian Interactions Design Based On Gestalt Principles, Yunhui Gao, Luo Wang, Ziteng Zhang
Scalable Ehmi: Automated Vehicles-Pedestrian Interactions Design Based On Gestalt Principles, Yunhui Gao, Luo Wang, Ziteng Zhang
IASDR Conference Series
The existing research on external human-machine interfaces (eHMIs) targeted at augmenting interactions between automated vehicles (AVs) and pedestrians has primarily concentrated on pedestrian crossings in one-to-one encounters. Nevertheless, in practical situations, pedestrians must assimilate additional information regarding the status of multiple vehicles while crossing. In order to enhance the efficacy of eHMIs in authentic situations, there is a requisite for more succinct and efficient information transmission. In response to this requirement, we have formulated an electronic Human-Machine Interface (eHMI) that is grounded on the Gestalt principle as the fundamental theoretical framework. We have assessed the efficacy of this approach through …
