Design disciplines and research have been rapidly transforming which includes not only objects but also services as the target of design. The paper presents a methodological-practical approach to determine the vectors of affective design which is one of the research on transformative design. The research has a twofold aim which are (1) to rethink the definition and vectors of design for practical usage (2) to verify more modifiable information and a significant value to be a key in enabling affective functionality through an experiment on multisensory integration using visual-olfactory stimuli. The findings of the research provide a new perspective on practical research on affective design in terms of effective and sustainable vectors.
