You are cordially invited to participate in Red Hot Chili PAPERS – 2022 Summer. "Red Hot Chili PAPERS" is an informal gathering of the Design Department, UNIST pursuing to bridge our knowledge and practice by sharing our thoughts.
Experience holds a critical portion in designing – from products to services. However, the concept of experience varies largely by different disciplines and scholars.
In “Red Hot Chili PAPERS – 2022 Summer”, we pursue to expand our understanding and clarify the notion of experience. We start our discussion with the pragmatic view and end with a critical view of traditional design.
