In today's fast-paced era, the requirements for a product's form and performance are no longer the sole criteria for measuring its quality. They are also directly linked to whether it can provide users with a positive feedback experience. Integrating the concept of emotional design into interaction innovation, always prioritizing the user experience, has become a new direction in modern ceramic tableware product design. This paper summarizes the current state and design of ceramic tableware, employs the KJ Method to investigate user needs, and conducts need analysis based on the three-level theory of emotional design. Utilizing the Quality Function Deployment (QFD) theory, it maps user need elements to the quality deployment elements of tableware, calculates their weights, and prioritizes quality issues to be addressed based on these weights. Through this method, the paper derives insights and reflections for the innovative design of ceramic tableware, combining QFD principles with emotional design to chart a direction for future design development.
