摘要

隨著科技進步，各類家電不斷推陳出新；優質生活的需求與品味的提升，更促使新式功能類型家電被開發出來。在當前生活美學的風潮下，家電產品已不再單純是家裡的電器用品，而是在其本身提供的機能之外，有著更高層次的服務與扮演的腳色。本研究以空氣清淨機為探討對象，其主要原因為：(一) 近年來SARS等多種流感，使得空氣清淨機熱賣成為市場新寵。(二)科技進步使得各品牌家電得以在功能上推陳出新，陸續發表不同等級機種以迎接市場大餅。(三)功能多樣化與產品等級區隔的結果，空氣清淨機之產品造形處於多樣發展上。(四) 空氣清淨機因本身機能特性，與居家空間關係甚為重要，擺飾功能成為產品造形考量因素之一。
本研究以產品造形意象分析方式，以外觀造形上美化程度與裝飾性較強之機種為調查樣本，針對這類空氣清淨機整體產品造形做意象分析，所得造形元素二項主要成分「繁複的程度與狀態」、「形態的靈活度」，依據空間、功能、使用三面向檢視各樣本的二項成分，探討空氣清淨機造形元素與機能的對應關係，導出此類產品設計掌握「造形元素數量少」、「造形元素簡明化」、「組合比例單純化」三項設計參考要點較能達成理想的造形。

As the advance in technology, high quality life demand and savor upgrade which urges the new capability type electrical appliances were developed. Under the current Life Aesthetics fashion, the electrical appliances product is no longer the electric appliance thing simply in daily life. Not only provides the function, but also serve higher. There are four reasons for this research that takes the air purifier as the discussion object.
(1)SARS and many kinds of flus, enabled it to become the new market. (2)Various brands launch the different capability model to greet this niche market constantly. (3)Capability diversification and the product segment, the form of air purifier is in the diverse development. (4)Highly home space relation makes highly consideration of product form design in decoration.
By product image analysis, there are two key factors of form elements.
(1) Status and degree of complexity. (2) Flexibility of Conformation.
Discuss the form elements and the function relationships through inspecting each stimulus’ two key factors based on the space, capability and using dimension. To sum up, grasp three design reference main points to be able to achieve the ideal shape for this kind of product.
(1) Few form elements. (2) Form elements purification.
(3) Combination proportion simplification.
