In the course of traditional design, most of the designers determined their design patterns with their personal estimations in face of the imagist terms, which could hardly obtain the products as really required by the consumers under the decision mode without theoretical basis. This research gave an example of the fabric pattern used for the train seats to collect data for the research topic with many questionnaires on the train passengers in Taiwan. An intensified research was made on the passengers' psychological image rising up from the product with the statistic methods of Multivariate Statistical Analysis based on the collected data. The results indicated that the passengers' preference to the design image of fabric patters for train seats covered 3 factors (Meaning transmission, symbolic significance, design quality) with 7 terms (Safe, science and technology, unique, comfortable, diverse, calm, kind), of which the ”Semantic Conveyance” factor involved 4 terms as ”Safe, Comfortable, Stable and Friendly”; ”Symbolic Meaning” factor involved 2 terms as ”Technical” and ”Diversified”; and ”Design Quality” factor involved the term as ”Unique”. The results of this research could be provided to the textile designers as design basis of fabric patterns for train seats, which could be used to improve the service quality of public transportation system such as train in Taiwan by incorporating the research theory with design practices.
