Abstract
The extraction and visualization of automobile brand form gene based on multi-roles’ expectation image was studied from the brand form feature and brand semantic feature two aspects. Using the protocol analysis, interview method and sketch analysis, the automobile brand form genes were extracted from users, automobile form designers and enterprise related personnel. Then the automobile brand form genes were visualized and quantitative described through the Bezier splines, mood board and semantic differential method. Finally, taking the Kia automobile as an example, the method was proved to be rational and feasible.
