Abstract

With the rapid development of technology, the application of smartphones and computing networks has been continually innovated, occupying every moment of life and reflecting the excellent comfort of the Internet. Through the design of home products, we will integrate the life of older adults, not only solve a few small things in life, but expand the goal and make a design that can improve the current situation with integrated thinking. As service design combines space and time, tangible entities and intangible services may be included. Therefore, many products that can improve the quality of life of older adults and reduce the burden of life are gradually developing, so that older adults can still live healthily and have a happy life in the process of aging. Over the last few years, the search for happiness has progressively become a subject of our modern people. Design itself is an area created to improve people’s lives, and how happy design practices will also be an important indicator of future design. Consequently, this study explores the impact of the design of home appliances on the perceived value and happiness of older adults, and hopes to help older adults design and development of products. In addition to meeting the needs of tomorrow’s society, it has the potential to reduce the impact of an aging society.
