During the 1950s Scandinavian Design caught international attention with its minimalism, simplicity, functionalism and sophistication. Several factors rested at its heart: functionality, democracy and affordability. Aesthetic styles connected to international minimalist, modernist and functionalist movements, which were also symbolically connected to education, political and social movements, and the Nordic welfare model. Studies have shown how social and political values from this period connect with Nordic interaction design from the past three decades. How these are represented in contemporary interaction design discourse, and design form and expression is a perspective under represented. This paper presents the results of a three-tiered content analysis of the proceedings of NordiCHI years 2000-2014: categorization of titles according to emphasis; content analysis of Scandinavian value constructs overall; and thematic connection of the results to conference theme and site. Results are then discussed with reflection on form and process in the Nordic interaction design industry.
翻译:1950年代,斯堪的纳维亚设计以其极简主义、简洁性、功能性与精致感吸引了国际关注。其核心要素包括功能性、民主性与 affordability(价格亲民)。美学风格与国际极简主义、现代主义及功能主义运动相关联,这些运动在象征意义上也与教育、政治和社会运动以及北欧福利模式紧密相连。研究表明,这一时期的社交与政治价值观与过去三十年北欧交互设计的发展脉络相契合。然而,这些价值观在当代交互设计话语、设计形式与表达中的呈现方式,仍是一个研究视角较为薄弱的领域。本文对2000-2014年NordiCHI会议论文集进行了三层内容分析:依据侧重点对标题进行分类;整体分析斯堪的纳维亚价值观建构;将结果与会议主题及场地进行主题关联。最终结合北欧交互设计行业的形式与流程,对分析结果展开反思与讨论。
