Every field, every subject, and every thought generated its sustainable counter part, and sustainability has come to symbolize the future. In fact, when sustainability researchers study design, they usually consider the sustainability of design.On the other hand, since it is of the essence of design, as in the essence of creativity, to conceive an original idea, to make new syntheses and to express them as an out of the ordinary image with seeable, tangible, olfactible, audible, and tasteable indicators, it is essential that the basic features of design should include knowledge about the future projections of design in the context of sustainability of design. Accordingly, it becomes a requisite to bring together all the information that is necessary to protect and sustain environments, habitats and nature that support life and evaluate it in shaping the future of product design and teach it as accum...

SMEs constitute 94.6% of Turkish industry, but they are not adequately familiar with product design. Therefore, collaboration with SMEs initially requires an explanation of what product design is. If SMEs are not given a thorough explanation and orientation, they take for granted that innovation is limited to products which look like those in the market or to products that are only a few steps ahead of those in the market. Accordingly, we started the experimental project with a different concept so that we made SMEs accept the project definition and give the designs a direction towards innovation from the onset. The project was titled “Emotional Interactional Approaches to Lighting Instruments”. Relevance to Design Practice and Theory: It provides a direct approach to design application. To create difference in design, a method which is alread...

The authentic glazed type of ceramic started with the Assyrians and it reached to its perfection going through Central Asia, Great Seljuks, Anatolian Seljuks and Ottoman periods in the hands of the Turks until its maturity in Iznik. Iznik tiles are commonly made with under-glaze and above-glaze techniques, along with trials of other techniques; the art received much external influence, but was mainly nourished by the rich sources in its essence. Providing sustainability to Iznik tiles, which have an important place in Turkish culture, should be the assignment of ceramic experts as well as of the design perspective. It is essential to sustain the essence with quality while preventing degeneration.

It consists of the feelings, thoughts and conception of both the designers and the users. Design students are confronted with some design problems in order to gain general continuity of creativity and ability. In some cases, these problems are based on some theoretical thought but they can also be formed with various materials, geometric shapes and objects exemplified in environment. The main subject of this paper is the experimental studies conducted by grouping student according to their classrooms in design education. Consequently, only creative structures based on figure is received from...

It has been tried to be developed by producing ideas on it. The conditions, lives and spaces of the 'Covid-19', which has recently taken the whole world under its influence, waiting to be solved and turned into a global problem, are negatively affecting lives and spaces. The parallel progression of the obligatory time spent indoors due to the increase in the disease has made users and designers think again about the necessity of examining the space in a new dimension, different from its own scope. This situation has given birth to new demands, needs and requirements in the context and scope of the concept of space and has provided the opportunity for designers to look at the space from a different perspective in terms of the reconfiguration and use of the space. For this reason, while the article originall...

Based on this definition, the qualities of water and water energy are inspected as water is one of the most important type of clean energy source. Water energy is a time-honored renewable energy whose use dates back to earliest periods in history. The subject titled “A Generator” is a small but significant support to environmental protection as it defines a patented object which generates energy from water with a mini apparatus. Protection of future lives of creatures and keeping them in infinite existence necessitate taking measures in advance. Concepts such as environment protection, sustainability, green energy, green economy etc. have also been under consideration by the UN since the 1970s. The subject is very comprehensive. This paper inspects as required hydroelectric power plants which produce clean energy and date back to ancient times. Water, as main...
