Abstract
The product’s transformation is considered for its fascination but it is not studied for its usage scenario. This study proposes an expanded phase model that can evaluate the usefulness of transformable products from the perspective of the form, function, and user scenario of a transformable product. We analyzed the purpose of transformation and identified user benefits from existing transformable products. This model allows designers/teams to evaluate the usefulness of transformable products by comparing user benefits of the product with the appropriateness of form and function in a given usage scenario.
