박물관에 적용된 사용자 중심 디자인에 대한 연구 - 고령사용자를 중심으로 -

초록

With the average life expectancy extended with the development of science and technology, the pace of aging in our society is fast advancing. As such, the focus of attention on culture and art life is expected to continue to develop in the future on the premise of increasing the elderly population, improving economic power and securing the basic standard of living for the elderly according to changes in life patterns. However, museums, more than other public cultural facilities, lack exhibitions, programs or facilities for the elderly. Based on this background, this study analyzes the current situation and problems of representative public cultural facilities in Korea, and presents user-centered design measures that identify the bodies and psychology of the elderly to provide them with facilities that can enhance cultural activities and improve their quality of life. First, through prior research, user-centered design assessment elements were selected based on the principles of universal design. It will also analyze the current state of the museum and its spatial composition to review the physical and psychological needs of the elderly. Second, the selected museum surveyed the satisfaction of the aged and the general users and compared the collected data collected. The National Museum of Korea expects user-centered designs to be generally well applied among public cultural facilities in Korea, but analysis has found that many of them are due to problems with outdated facilities and lack of maintenance. User-centered design, which is intended for older users, requires appropriate improvement and management for the convenience of users to meet their specific needs, away from the perception that focuses solely focuses on procedures.
