Money is the source of trouble and happiness. People

cannot live without money and mankind is blinded by the

physical appearance of money.

RESEARCHProblem

Even though, ancient scholars discussed the fundamental of earliest economics

is to study the value in the objects that was simply introduced under the

hierarchy of needs. Along the world development, value also being developed

in more complex way and globalization system has continuously reshaping

the world in politics, economics, technology, social and culture. However,

the world resources are not divided equally, particularly in social justice

and economics. Money is used to purchase the objects when mankind is

overpowered by the physical appearance of money to purchase happiness.

It is called material culture. This culture invites consumerism to happen.

Consumerism, perhaps, is something that society unable to avoid particularly

in material culture however there is still a room to change by showing an

appreciation to objects.

Thus, for the identified design issue in this research is modern society seems to lose

the appreciation value in everyday objects and they purchased merely for consumerism

aesthetic that is created by creative industry.

In order to address the identified design issue, the design hypothesis of

this design research is reintroducing the appreciation on the

value of everyday objects using comparative studies based

on the varying standards of needs and wants in Info-graphic

to break down and communicate different levels of value

from the objects.

FREAKONOMICS

ECONOMICS is, at root , the study of incentives: how people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing.

An incentive is a bullet, a lever, a key:

an often tiny object with astonishing

power to change a situation.

There are 3 basic flavors of incentive :

Economic, social and moral

The role of ownership in cult object, a social stratum of artefact that brings out an excessive power with mysterious fascination

In view of the manipulation of human wants, this result

developed into a more serious trouble by generating the

vague idea of value inside human being.

This falsehood value towards the objects grows and is

believed inside the room of culture and turned out to be a

cult culture.

(Woodward, 2007)

The unseen role of ownership of the object is being played for a long period of time. Human nowadays are so devoted to the objects because of the values that is created by human itself.

ObjectsVisualization and

Pictographs

The development of Human mindset has experienced the theory

of philosophy knowledge and the practical manipulation about the

consumerism to reach out the ideal picture of this knowledge.

In the opinion of one of three great German Idealist,

Hegel (2005) a human being is a mind. A mind essentially knows

itself to a degree of self-consciousness. However a mind were not

able to grasp this self-consciousness itself without the existence of the

external world.

With the evidence of how this mindset evolves, it is also crucial to

know that there is another way of seeing how objectification of

objects works.

Prown (2009) wrote in his article called

mind in matter, he also agreed the study of

cultural interpretation can be investigate

through the artefacts, engaging the other

culture in the first instance using more on

human senses instead of mind that projects

the treatment of bias culture.

With that said, mankind perceived the idealism that

is attached to the objects of wants, for that reason,

manipulation of desire is conducted to accommodate

the understanding of self-consciousness. Even so, it

is very coherent that human is stimulated by some

motivation inside their head before they purchase

certain objects. Either it is for the functional or

aesthetical value to satisfy their needs, or the desire to

own an object is turned into material possession.

In the matter of managing the information field, journalism field

are what most people always search for compare to the existence of information graphic. Information

graphic is a field where information is transform into visual information that

is easier to absorb by the viewer.

WHY INFO-GRAPHIC ?WHY INFO-GRAPHIC ?

Wilbur, P. and

Burke, M. (1999),

Information

design in its

widest sense

is about the

selection,

organization and

presentation of

information to a

given audience.

Information itself

can come from

almost any source-

weather map, a

timetable listing

flight departures

or a pile of

statistical data

McCandless (2010) explained that the sense of sight is the fastest sense in human body and the eyes are also extremely sensitive to beautiful objects. It is the sense that called the variations of colour, shapes and patterns aesthetically pleasing. He called it the language of eye.

By incorporating the language of eyes and the language of the mind to work and enhancing each other at the same time. This is something that is going to alter humanism perspective.

OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT

It is true that the world has gone to globalization. In fact, global depending on money circulation through the objects that is purchased however, by judging only daily life consumerism, it is not being fair to the other parties. Especially, in this graphic design industry, Designers work to create and put value in this consumerism aesthetic.

These findings hope that graphic designers can transform the negative value of consumerism into something good and worthy enough. Holding on grateful philosophy as a balance line between spiritual and material contexts. The objective and subjective values should be reconsidered by designers to achieve a better tangible benefits and experiences to society towards the objects that they purchased
