Full Article:

In the transition from the nineteenth to the twentieth century, in a departure from the early idea of applying art to industry, Hirayama Eizo and Matsuoka Hisashi discussed industrial design, which was expressed by the Japanese terms of Kogyoteki Isho and Kogyo Zuan. Matsuoka in particular defined the aim of industrial design as the beautification of all industrial products and harmonization of daily life with beauty.
