Most research reports that aesthetic design is a determinant of the marketplace success (Bloch, 1995), some researchers emphasized that aesthetics is important to the success of a website in attracting potential users’ attention and providing them with an enjoyable interactive experience (Hallnas, 2002; van Schaik, 2009).

Co-creation (Vargo and Lusch 2010) suggests that consumers take and shape what is given—place, people, and brand—to create their own meanings. An environment designed with interactive aesthetics motivates consumers to interpret and involve with the place, people, and brand. The co-creation process is essential in understanding how consumers and brands collaborate in creating the connection with brands (Joy et al., 2014). Co-creation may create self-serving biases associated with high customer participation (Albinsson et al. 2011). Nevertheless, research on the influence of aesthetics on customer behavior in value co-creation is relatively sparse. Therefore, this study will focus on how aesthetics design influence customer behavior in value co-creation and its impact on self-brand
One of the key elements of marketing is the ability to predict consumer behavior. Marketers understand that consumers behave in predictable ways. In this regard, many businesses use physical design to influence the behavior of their potential consumers. It is important to note that this approach is not limited to physical stores. Online marketers also use the same principles in web design to influence the behavior of consumers. This paper explores how Sport Chek uses the physical design of its premises to influence the behavior of its customers. The goal of the paper is to identify how Sport Chek uses its internal and externa...
People are often deceived by some famous brands, which they will buy as useless commodities to feel they are distinctive. People require brands to experience the feeling of being special. People spend their money to have something from famous brands, like a bag from Coach or Louis Vuitton which they think they need, yet all that is just people’s wants. Steve McKevitt claims that people give more thought on features or brands when they need to buy a product, “It might even be the case that you do need a phone to carry out your work and a car to get around in, but what brand it is and, to a large extent, what features it has are really just want” (McKevitt, 145), which that means people care about brands more than their needs. Having shoes from Louis Vuitton or shoes that cost $30 it is designed for the same use.
Aesthetic value is determined by a standard. Typically, this standard is called beauty. While beauty is conceptually simple, easily evoked in the mind’s eye, it becomes far more complex when used as a scale of aesthetic judgment. Treating one piece of art as more beautiful than another implies that beauty can be measured, and in order to do this measuring an objective standard must be used. There are two problems in understanding beauty to be an objective standard. In his essay, The Aesthetic Hypothesis Clive Bell illustrates that aesthetic value is a matter of taste:
Here, the term ‘beauty’ involves both form, shape and the relationship among people, environment, and the circumstances. Not that there is anything wrong with beauty in Super Normal: on the contrary, it provides daily life with pleasant and inspirations. Donald Norman, an American Product designer, in his book Emotional Design mentions, the beauty of a product can elicit positive emotions such as pleasure and these can alter how we think and behave. Interacting with a pleasing, attractive product “the behavior seems to go along more smoothly, more easily, and better (Norman, 2002). attractive things make people feel good resulting in a positive emotional state. Appreciated aesthetics in turn opens up the cognitive system making people think more creatively and solutions to problems become easier to find. Thus, based on the work of Norman, happy people are more effective in finding alternative solutions and tolerant of minor difficulties. These effects are central to measures of usability and their positive nature indicates a positive role for aesthetics in

Aesthetics is the study of nature, beauty and taste. Found information states “that Aesthetics refer to environmental factors and how they are manipulated to influence our feelings and emotions”. When referring to environmental factors it was including colors, lighting, spatial arrangement, and sounds. Found information also states that we “manipulate environmental factors to affect mood by controlling the setting”. For example, you may change the lighting in the room to a dim to give a romantic mood for someone. Aesthetics is used in many different ways.
Tanner and Raymond (2014) describe branding activity as “strategies that are designed to create an image and position in the consumers’ minds” (c.6). When branding messages coincide with its offerings’ characteristics, it establishes consumer trust, and brand strength. For example, when first introducing Dove brand in 1957, by labeling its product as a “beauty cleansing bar . . . [with] ¼ moisturizing cream, that rinses cleaner than soap” (Unilever, 2016), we can see that marketers associated the brand to moisturizing and beauty, and disassociated the brand from common soap. Over the years, this consistent message coinciding with product performance has strengthened the Dove brand. Strong brand equity is derived from consistent, strategic branding that establishes perceived quality and emotional attachment (Entrepreneur, 2016); therefore, consumers are more likely to pay higher prices, as well as purchase new offerings connected to the
Aesthetics is the theoretical study of the arts and related types of behavior and experience. It is traditionally regarded as a branch of philosophy, concerned with the understanding of beauty and its manifestations in art and nature. However, in the latter 20th century there developed a tendency to treat it as an independent science, concerned with investigating the phenomena of art and its place in human life. Yet, what in a field with a hazy line in between being classified as a science or study of beliefs is considered data for determining what can be studied? It can simply be drawn to the only three things involved in the process of art : The creator, the person experiencing, and the art itself.

I will be writing my paper on “What is Aesthetic value”. The two readings I will be discussing are Author C. Danto “After the End of Art” and John Dewey “Having an experience. Danto expresses making art into a philosophical meaning and Dewey states that in order to have an experience it must mean something significant. I will be arguing Dewey over Danto.
