IASDR Conference Series

Design thinking has become a widely adopted approach to innovation, yet its ideation phase frequently depends on intuition and loosely defined heuristics, particularly when creating services intended to shape user behavior over time. To address this gap, this study operational izes the Fogg Behavior Model (FBM)—which conceptualizes behavior as the convergence of Motivation, Ability, and Prompt—into a set of actionable design taxonomies. We conducted a systematic qualitative analysis of 28 widely used digital applications across health, productivity, and finance domains to identify recurring strategies demonstrating how FBM’s constructs are applied in practice. The resulting framework comprises three taxonomies that specify …

Confucian Ritual Space As More-Than-Human Design: Reframing The Zaojing In The Forbidden City, Ning Gao, Yongsheng Tong, An Sui, Hui Zeng Dec 2025

Confucian Ritual Space As More-Than-Human Design: Reframing The Zaojing In The Forbidden City, Ning Gao, Yongsheng Tong, An Sui, Hui Zeng

IASDR Conference Series

This article explores the Forbidden City’s zaojing (coffered ceiling) as a case study in reinterpreting ritual space through a “more-than-human” design lens. Bridging Confucian cosmology with contemporary post-humanist design theory, we argue that the imperial Chinese ritual environment was inherently more-than-human-centric, embedding non-human agencies (cosmic forces, mythical beings, and natural elements) into architectural design. We begin by examining Confucian cosmology and imperial architecture, highlighting how the built environment embodied a cosmological order beyond human-centered needs. We then outline a theoretical framework drawing on more-than- human design principles and spatial semiotics to understand architecture as an active mediator between human and …
