Virtual reality has now become one of the marketing technologies in the interior design industry. However, there is still limited understanding of how interior designers perceive affordance of virtual reality technology and its impact on consumers' inspiration and customization intention. Thus, this study employs the '' Affordance-Inspiration-Behavioral Intention'' framework and the Theory of Organismic Integration to test the relationship between consumers' inspiration for interior decoration and their customization intention. Those hypotheses were tested with 204 valid questionnaires collected from Taiwanese consumers through an online convenience sampling method. Statistical analysis confirms that only the aesthetic and functional affordance of VR have a significant positive effect on consumer's inspired-by. Furthermore, only technology readiness and consumer's inspired-to significantly directly affect the customization intention. Lastly, this paper also confirms that consumer's inspiration plays a mediating role between the VR's affordance in interior design and the customization intention. Hence, the findings of this survey not only provide practical references for interior design practitioners but also contribute to the literature on design affordance, customer inspiration, and technology readiness. |
