Research on Design Methods for Expressing “Rimpa”—Research on Industrial Design Expressing Japanese Aesthetics (2)
The purpose of this study is to derive design techniques for expressing the Rimpa aesthetic in modern industrial products. First, 227 descriptions of 56 representative Rimpa works were categorized into five expressive features, and the descriptions of each feature were organized by design technique.The relationship between these design techniques and craftsmanship is discussed.
As a result, the 〈simple〉are "simplified surface /symbolization / extreme / abbreviation,〈Breaking Tone〉are "novel composition /reconstruction / suggestion/ off standard," 〈Relativity〉are "contrast / synchronization / fusion of picture and text," 〈processing development〉 are "different blends/new materials / new manufacturing methods,”〈3D sense〉are "use of front and back / use of composition / use of procedures." The usefulness of the design method was suggested by the Smartphone UI prototyping as a case study..

Research on Design Methods for Expressing "Wabi"-Research on Industrial Design Expressing Japanese Aesthetics (1)
Our study sheds light on design methods that express "wabi" aesthetics in the appearance of industrial products. We divided the purposes of action from 144 anecdotes about Sen no Rikyū, who perfected wabi cha, into five classifications, and compared them with the design characteristics of 54 of the tea utensils admired by Rikyū. We discovered that the design methods of "practical action" are "usability" and "right materials in the right places." "unfinished action" are "simplicity," "incompleteness" and "turning negative to positive." "harmonious action" are "rhythm of shape and materials," "consideration for objects, people, time, and space," and "neat shapes with a sense of stability." "hidden action" are "concealing technique" and "minimizing alteration." "euphemistic action" are "indirect expression" and "allusion." We confirmed the usefulness of these design methods using prototype industrial products as examples..
