Consumption demand has transferred from quantitative consumption to "perceptual consumption" at nowadays through qualitative consumption changes along with arriving of information age. Development direction for guiding thoughts of designing creation shall be pursuing of more harmonious and closer perceptual relations between user and commercial goods in the future. Product designing shall not only focus on integration of visual elements but shall also pay more attention to perceptual part produced by overall sense organ in product using process. This essay discusses on how to implement product perceptual design by carrying out visual, touching, hearing, smelling and other organ element analysis.

In 2000, the UK Government Department for Education and Skills (DfES) piloted 27 new primary school projects around the country in an initiative called ‘Classrooms of the Future’. Starting with a polemical question: what is ‘a Classroom of the Future’?, it encouraged both a design-led approach and an exploration of where the theory of the classroom design meets teaching practice. David Miliband, the government minister involved, described the challenge as ‘designing inspiring buildings that can adapt to educational and technological change’ (DfES, 2002a). Chris Bissell from the DfES, the initiator of ‘Classrooms of the Future’ summed up his expectations: ‘to deliver the best and most effective education exploiting all the possibilities of the information age, school buildings need to reflect advances in technology. They need to provide a pleasant and comfortable environment for learning and to use architectural and design features to stimulate children's imaginations. And they need to be open to wider use, binding schools to their local communities.’ (DfES, 2002a)

The purpose of this paper is to examine current positions in literature with regards to computer education and future jobs related to computer usage.The expansion of the use of computers has made computer literacy as essential as the basic skills of reading, writing, and arithmetic. Morf related the rapid expansion in the use of computers as follows: Among the more widely accepted scenarios of the future at work are those based on the assumption that technology will continue to grow exponentially (1983, p. 24). Therefore, as technology grows, our educational programs must incorporate the new knowledge necessary to function in the world of the information age. As Hart stated: We must prepare now to respond to the new technologies that will shape our future (1983, p. 11).

As a speculative vision of the future, the Compatible House was designed to promote critical thinking in architecture by questioning the validity of hybrid space design. The house, once a private space now pierced with public network signals, proved to be an ideal typology to demonstrate the influence of digital space on our physical space. Research and case studies concluded that current technology can be misused within architectural design with serious repercussions. The research also concluded that achieving successful hybrid architecture is to understand the role of the user within the context of the Information Age and enable that user to manipulate the properties of their physical space. As a means to embrace the obsessive trend of digital immersion without disregarding the importance of architectural space, the Compatible House makes use of specific design techniques and emerging forms of technology that demonstrate a productive, evolutionary vision of a possible way of life in the future.
