Abstract

In this study, the influence of Frutiger Aero, one of the digital aesthetic styles, on interior design is examined. The aim of the research is to reveal how a digital aesthetic style manifests in physical spaces. The fundamental characteristics of Frutiger Aero are introduced within the study. How the style is utilized in interior design is explained through example projects.

Qualitative methods were employed in the research, focusing on selected space designs. Spaces specifically related to computer and internet technologies were chosen as samples. The findings indicate that the visual style of Frutiger Aero, along with its optimistic technological outlook, influences the corporate identities of brands and their interior designs.

In conclusion, it was determined that although Frutiger Aero is an aesthetic style born in the digital environment, it is not limited to this domain alone. The study aims to demonstrate that digital aesthetic styles influence interior architecture

DİJİTAL ESTETİĞİN FİZİKSEL YANSIMALARI: İÇ MEKÂN TASARIMINDA FRUTIGER AERO ETKİSİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, dijital estetik stillerinden biri olan Frutiger Aero'nun iç mekân tasarımına olan etkisi incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın amacı, dijital bir estetik stilin fiziksel mekânlara nasıl yansıdığını ortaya koymaktır. Çalışma kapsamında Frutiger Aero'nun temel özellikleri tanıtılmıştır. Stilin iç mekân tasarımında nasıl kullanıldığı örnek projelerle açıklanmıştır.

Araştırmada nitel yöntemler kullanılarak, seçilen mekân tasarımları üzerinden inceleme yapılmıştır. Örneklem olarak özellikle bilgisayar ve internet teknolojileriyle ilişkili mekânlar seçilmiştir. Bulgular, Frutiger Aero'nun görsel stilinin yanı sıra iyimser teknolojik bakış açısı gibi karakteristik öğelerinin, markaların kurumsal kimliklerini ve iç mekân tasarımlarını etkilediğini göstermektedir.

Sonuç olarak, Frutiger Aero'nun dijital ortamda doğan bir estetik stil olmasına rağmen sadece bu alanda sınırlı kalmadığı saptanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucu olarak dijital estetik stillerin iç mimarlığı etkilediğinin gösterilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
