“…Sustainable development, unlike pure economic growth, is not focused mainly on productivity increase, but on the responsible use of resources (Brad et al, 2016). While in the neoclassical development model it is considered that economic growth ensures the premises for sustainable development, some authors highlighted the need to look more at the needs to improve the quality of life, at the environmental and inequality issues (Greenwood and Holt, 2016).…”

“…Furthermore, BE is a very recent concept recognized as an alternative to the green economy that is very costly [6,7]. Under this background of BE development, the blue design (BD) appears, which is an engineering design approach that provides products with sustainable, healthy, but cheap economy, capable to o er more with less [8,9]. So far, it is still challengeable to transform the blue economy rules into practical design strategy.…”

Sustainable product designs always draw much attention. However, sustainable or green products are usually costly. This contradiction can be solved via blue design. The concept of blue design originates from the blue economy which is a popular strategy for providing sustainable, healthy, but cheap socioeconomic activities. This study innovatively implements the ideas of sustainability and economy from the blue economy, and the affection (or Kansei in Japanese) from the Kansei engineering into a product design process to become a novel affective-blue design methodology of a product form. The proposed methodology mainly contains three aspects. The first aspect is the merge of a novel Kansei blue model with the traditional Kansei engineering to deal with the semantic space and form decomposition issues encountered in the product form designing process. The second aspect is the adoption of proper data mining schemes to optimally trim and obtain the kernel information from the Kansei evaluation data of products. The third aspect is the usage of appropriate machine learning schemes to establish a precise relationship between product images and design elements from the kernel information. A case study was conducted for the form design of a computer-numerical-control lathe to evaluate the effectiveness of our proposed methodology. The verification results, that all predictive errors are within 4.5% for test samples, show that our blue-affective design methodology is quite satisfying. Through applying this proposed methodology, designers may correctly evaluate and easily catch the essential blue and affective design factors for designing a good industrial product, such as a computer-numerical-control machine tool.

goal of this paper is to present the author's thoughts on the possible contribution of quality engineering to sustainable development. It is indicated that in the product life cycle designers have the greatest potential to support this challenge. Arguments have been presented to abandon the commonly accepted paradigm, according to which the overriding goal of the designer is to achieve the highest market value possible measured by the prospected level of demand for the products designed. It is postulated to include the minimization of the risks brought to the natural environment and social relations as a criterion of product design quality. To this goal, it is necessary for designers to pursue both environmentally friendly materials and technologies and design concepts reducing consumers' pressure on continuously increasing demand. Such an approach will allow for more effective control of consumption, the main cause of the negative effects of economic growth.
