本研究之目的在探討將負面意象轉化為設計展開之方法並應用在氣動打釘機設計上之可行性。研究分三個階段進行:(1)透過負面事例之調查,歸納出一般性之負面概念結構,得到8群負面之子概念。(2)以氣動打釘機之設計為例,調查氣動打釘機使用上之具體負面看法並與前階段之概念結構比較,從負面概念篩選符合氣動打釘機負面之子概念。(3)依據氣動打釘機負面之子概念進行意象轉化,將各個負面意象子概念展開不同之負面要素,依其不同負面要素尋求對立之要素及解決方法,萃取對應之產品設計手法並設計樣本進行測試與驗證。 研究結果顯示,經由負面意象轉化之設計展開方法所設計之氣動打釘機,皆獲得好用及喜歡使用之評價,換言之,本研究建立之轉化方法可有效提供設計構想之展開並得到良好之產品設計。
The purpose of this study is to discuss different methods of transforming negative images and the possibility to apply these methods on the designing of Pneumatic Nailers. The project was conducted in three steps: (1) Through the investigation of negative examples, to establish the general negativity conceptual structure, concluding 8 sub-concepts. (2) Using the design of Pneumatic Nailer as profile, investigate negative examples regarding Pneumatic Nailers’ usage, as well as a comparison with the previous conceptual structure, to select suitable negative sub-concepts to transform the image of Pneumatic Nailers (3) conduct the transformation in accordance to the negative sub-concepts of Pneumatic Nailers, expanding each negative sub-concept into different negative factors, finding the correspondent opposite factor and solution, in order to extract the corresponding design methods, design prototypes accordingly, and thereafter further experiment and verify the samples. The study shows that using transformation of negative images, the design of Pneumatic Nailers have gained positive reviews regarding their usage and applicability. In other words, the study established a transformation method that can effectively profive designing concepts expansion and optain better designs.
