Abstract

This research examines the visual aesthetics and symbolic meaning of batik cloth used in the Javanese Mitoni ritual in Surakarta, a traditional ceremony held during the seventh month of pregnancy to pray for the safety of the mother and child. The study employs a qualitative iconographic approach to analyze the form, motif, and symbolism of batik cloth selected for the ritual. Data were collected through direct observation and interviews with ritual practitioners and families who conducted the ceremony. The analysis reveals that each batik motif carries philosophical meanings representing prayers for protection, fertility, and harmony. The cloth used within the Surakarta Palace tradition demonstrates strong ties between visual art and spiritual belief, functioning as both aesthetic expression and cultural identity. The findings highlight the importance of preserving batik as part of Indonesia’s intangible heritage and its role as a visual language of hope and continuity in Javanese culture.

Abstract

Preschool children often display picky eating behavior due to their growth stage and independence in choosing food, which can lead to unbalanced nutrition. This research focuses on developing character designs for an educational board game that introduces various nutritious foods in an engaging way. Using a qualitative method, primary data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGD), interviews, and observation, while secondary data came from literature studies. The data were analyzed descriptively to identify behavioral and visual patterns suitable for early childhood audiences. The analysis produced the concept “Active and Independent Behavior” as the foundation for character design. The resulting visual outcomes include five characters: four main figures called Teman Sehat and one antagonist, Monster Manis si Tetangga Menyebalkan. Each character was designed in an anthropomorphic style using simple shapes and bright colors to emphasize friendliness and emotional connection. The findings are expected to inform future design practices for educational media that promote healthy eating habits through visual storytelling and interactive play.

Abstract

The preservation of Chinese-Indonesian culture is increasingly challenged by urban development, generational shifts, and fragmented top-down policies. This study investigates how a collaborative design approach—grounded in participatory planning, stakeholder co-creation, and visual communication—can foster sustainable and inclusive cultural preservation. Using a qualitative multi-case study method, four culturally significant urban centers—Singkawang, Jambi, Surabaya, and Glodok—were analyzed. Data were collected from academic literature, government reports, and media sources, then thematically triangulated to reveal patterns of stakeholder-driven preservation. The findings show that Visual Communication Design plays a vital role in shaping cultural identity, amplifying narratives, and facilitating community dialogue through visual storytelling, media engagement, and identity design. A co-design framework is proposed to integrate cultural heritage into tourism, education, and urban revitalization. This research contributes practical strategies for inclusive heritage policies and supports the role of design in advancing Sustainable Development Goals related to culture and community.

Abstract

This study investigates high school students’ perceptions of Augmented Reality (AR) technology in the Animaxtion art exhibition organized by Multimedia Nusantara Polytechnic. AR has transformed animated art exhibitions by offering interactive and immersive experiences, yet its acceptance among young visitors remains underexplored. Employing a quantitative approach based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), data were collected through surveys distributed to exhibition visitors. The study examined perceived usefulness and ease of use as factors influencing visitors’ intention to engage with AR-based artworks. Descriptive and regression analyses revealed that both factors significantly affected visitor acceptance, with most respondents perceiving AR as enjoyable and helpful for appreciating animation. However, several participants reported hesitation due to limited device compatibility and inconsistent performance. The findings highlight AR’s potential as an engaging educational and artistic medium while emphasizing the need for improved implementation strategies. This research contributes insights into design and technology integration within interactive exhibitions.

Abstract

This research examines how visual design elements in Shopee’s Instagram advertisements influence consumers’ impulsive buying behavior. With the growing prevalence of online shopping among users aged 18 to 34, brands increasingly rely on visual strategies such as bright colors, countdown timers, and expressive illustrations to attract immediate attention. The study applies a qualitative approach using content and semiotic analysis of Shopee’s “6.6 Campaign” advertisements. The analysis focuses on color schemes, typography, illustration style, layout, and motion effects. The findings reveal that warm orange tones, bold typography, and cheerful character illustrations effectively capture attention and create a sense of urgency, which encourages spontaneous purchases. Structured layouts and balanced visual rhythm further strengthen clarity and brand recall. The results suggest that combining emotional triggers with consistent visual identity enhances user engagement and purchase intention. This study underscores the role of visual communication design as a strategic tool in shaping consumer perception and behavior in digital commerce.

Abstract

The emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, particularly Generative AI, has brought significant changes across various sectors, including the creative industry—especially in the field of Visual Communication Design (VCD), which integrates technology, aesthetics, and communication. This study aims to analyze how Generative AI is integrated into the workflow of creative industry professionals, its impact on productivity and the creative process, as well as the challenges encountered. A qualitative research method was employed using a case study approach and in-depth interviews with creative practitioners in graphic design, photography, and multimedia production. The findings show that Generative AI helps accelerate production processes and opens new spaces for idea exploration yet also raises concerns regarding the originality of works and potential threats to certain creative professions. This study provides recommendations for optimizing the use of AI while maintaining ethical considerations and the essential role of humans in the creative process.

Abstract

Elementary students often get bored with passive teaching methods, such as listening to the teacher and paying attention to the blackboard, because they prefer playing the game, exploring things, and interacting with peers. Augmented Reality (AR) card games have emerged as an alternative education media, offering interactive 3D visuals that enrich the learning experience. This study explores how the interaction design of an AR card game influences the engagement of second-grade elementary school students in learning animal vocabulary. Using a qualitative case study approach, observation was conducted during one class session, and the collected data were analyze based on learning outcomes and interaction design principles. The findings revealed a dynamic engagement trajectory, with students starting with curiosity and excitement or needing AR guidance, then actively participating, becoming master, and finally becoming bored after repeated the AR card game. From student engagement, this study revealed that the AR interaction design of the card game fostered curiosity, motivation, enjoyment, collaboration, and attention. The study demonstrated that the 3D visualization, animation, gameplay, interaction variations, audio narrative, and text supported vocabulary development, contextual understanding, memory retention, and problem-solving. However, sustained engagement depends on the variety of AR interactivity, so the insights contribute to improve the user interaction and gameplay design.
