Abstract

Design is, by nature, a creative activity in which human beings are looking deep into their living ideal. In a historical review, the revolution in design has been constantly lifting people’s aspiration for a real-life Shangri-La. If we name the empirical design Design 1.0 of the handicraft era, the rational design Design 2.0 after the industrial revolution and the consuming design Design 3.0; then the design revolution, triggered by the surging Industry 4.0 technology that brought about all-around revolution in material, dynamics and control fields, can be named as Design 4.0. The "5Is” of Design 4.0; Intelligence, Interneticity, Interactivity, Intentionality, and Integration, are constructed out an E-image City - an illusioned but accessible Eco-topia landscape blending virtuality and reality, body and media, localization and globalization, manual work and nature, and classic and virtual space-time with a characteristic of "light-clear-young".
