Interactive Products Stimulate Human Senses

Design is synonymous with neither the function of a thing or product nor with its purpose. On the contrary, design is the scent that includes both. Design has already despatched to people a particular scent. In other words the issue for design is nothing less than what goes beyond things and events themselves, namely the activity of the people who utilizes those events and the experience formed therein.

Any products do not work as standing alone, but must work in relating with human behaviour based on surrounding and situations. Thus interactive product, which including process like that changing by time period, could has more great potential to change situation and to makes a move people’s mind dramatically by promoting human behavior and experiences. It should be like interactive art piece rather than consumer product despite of working functionally as a clock, lighting and so on.
