Wooden infant bed design under the background of two-child policy

Abstract

To cope with low fertility rate and an aging population, China introduced and implemented a two-child policy to make an overall population adjustment. Because of this, there are now problems, such as the uncoordinated sleep space for the two children, competition between older children, insufficient care for older children, and additional family affairs. In view of this, this study focused on the two-child family and parents as the main users of wooden infant beds. The method of constructing I-Kano model was used to determine the needs of users and their importance. Based on the QFD theory, the user needs and engineering measures were analyzed and explored. Based on the TRIZ theory, the analysis of engineering conflict resolution was performed. Based on the results, the wooden infant bed design strategy was developed for the background of two-child policy. The purpose of this work is to meet the parenting needs of two-child families in various periods with the developed design strategy, avoid the parenting problems of two-child families, improve the parenting quality of two-child families, adjust the sleeping space of two-child families, and fill the vacancy in the design theory of wooden baby beds for two-child families.
