Abstract

Combining the theory of logic of behaviors and somaesthetics, this article explores their application in the field of user experience and the internal relationship between the two. A product user experience design process based on logic of behaviors and logic of things is proposed, and a study of the mechanism in user behaviors from three aspects of somaesthetics (the body as the aesthetic object, the body as the aesthetic subject, and the aesthetic embodiment) is presented, which brings up a design model of embodied user experience integrating the body, behaviors and aesthetics. Under the guidance of this theory, this article studies body’s bathing behaviors and its user experience. In order to verify effectiveness of the design model, the new generation of air energy bathing product is taken as an example to design and innovate the product user experience.
