Structuralism
Structure and "system"&sbquo key concepts in the explanation of structuralism&sbquo have existed since ancient times as conceptual terms and have manifold meanings. Structuralism attempts to explain an object&sbquo based not on an "organized structure" but on a "structured organization." Structure does not refer to a natural or concrete relationship among things or events&sbquo but system of relationship made evident by the differences that distinguish them from others. For human beings merely the concept of a system formed unconsciously through history and social practice and experience. It is a philosophical position that can provide subjective and objective criticism—in the context of structuralist theory and debate—of verbal expressions of consciousness and will&sbquo social relationships as experiential phenomena&sbquo and even communication methods that have become a cultural routine outside the realm of human awareness. The assessment of structures and systems of things or events that are the subject of design is closely related to the assessment of those things in structuralist logic. In order words&sbquo probing into how the subject of design is recognized&sbquo understood or unconsciously accepted in a social system is a basic idea in design methods. In presenting a design as a creative language&sbquo structuralist criticism and evaluation will be necessary as a design strategy to clarify the meaning of design and measure its efficacy and effect on our social systems&sbquo both inside and outside the realm of human awareness.
