The Deeper Relationship Between Human And Product
/
In this project I aim to cultivate emotional bonds between humans and products. I've designed a series of household appliances that mimic human expressions of feelings in their operation. Through interaction, users develop emotional attachments, leading to longer use.
Project Purpose And Background Research
/
01 - Existing Relationship : Regard Eletronic Products As Tools
Contemporary consumer habits prioritize functionality and new technology, leading to frequent product replacements and increased E-waste generation.
02 - Genergating Emotional Bond : Tend To Project Nagitive Emotion
After experiments, I found people readily project negative emotions onto similar scenarios or performances by personifying them.
Initial Sketch : The Operation Of Home Appliance
/
The sketch explores how the operation of home appliances mirrors human expression of negative emotions, stimulating their personification abilities.
Further Exploration In Visualizing The Expression Of Operation
The Prototypes Of Dynamic Structure
AIR PURIFIER : ShaBre
/
The purifying process mimics the rhythmic movement of breathing, granting ShaBre the potential to express reluctance towards commands.
BUG ZAPPER : NepFla
/
NepFla is compelled to consume mosquitoes constantly without choice. Certain body parts expand to convey its escalating stress from work.
ROBOT VACUUM : StriTer
/
Expressing emotions through posture changes, StriTuer's declining battery power signifies reduced physical labor, with motions and postures weakening gradually.
