Claim One:
1. A design system using affordance features, the design system comprising: a storage unit that stores multiple affordances, one or more affordance features matched with each of the affordances, and design information corresponding to each of the affordance features; a search unit that searches affordance features corresponding to search conditions set by a user; an output unit that outputs design information corresponding to the affordance features searched by the search unit and design information corresponding to an affordance feature selected by the user on a user interface; and an analogical reasoning unit that performs analogical reasoning on the basis of the design information corresponding to the selected affordance feature and derives a new affordance feature for a predetermined design target to be designed by the user, wherein the affordance features are extracted on the basis of the affordances, and the affordances are identified on the basis of correlations between multiple functions and activities for a pre-analyzed design target.
