An Impact-Centered, Sustainable, Positive Experience Design Model

Abstract

The pursuit of sustainable well-being is one of the research objectives of positive experience design. Therefore, this paper aims to provide an impact-centered, sustainable, positive experience design model. First, the literature review method was used to define the research status and concept of impact-centered, sustainable design. Second, an impact-centered, sustainable, positive experience design model was constructed, and relevant formulas for concept generation and evaluation were proposed. Third, design verification was conducted through a workshop. Finally, the technology acceptance model questionnaire was used to evaluate and discuss the design model. An impact-centered sustainable positive design model was proposed, which included the important impact dimensions of sensory experience and meaningful experience on users’ qualities of life at different levels: healthy living (pleasure index and health behavior), harmonious community (social connectivity and social contribution), and livable environment (living environment and environmental contribution). Based on positive experience-related theory, this study takes long-term impacts as the starting point for a sustainable, positive experience design, which helps designers generate design concepts from a systematic and long-term perspective.
