Abstract

This research aims to explore the use of the Infinitive Qualitative Design Method (IQM) in product design, with a focus on incorporating aesthetic considerations into the design process. Current design procedures often prioritize function over aesthetics, leading to products that are inadequate or unappealing. The study utilizes the IQM to develop a product prototype, in this case a toothbrush holder, that not only addresses practical concerns but also prioritizes aesthetic values. The objectives of the study include designing the prototype using the IQM, verifying its aesthetic appeal, and determining the effectiveness of the IQM as a design process framework. The results of the study show that the IQM was successful in creating a functional and visually pleasing prototype, indicating its potential as a valuable tool in the product design process.
