Malzeme Bazlı Tasarımda Fikir Geliştirme Süreci İçin “Yabancılaştırma” Aracı Önerisi

Öz

Malzeme bilimi sürdürülebilir bir dünya inşa etmek için çalışırken, çoğu zaman endüstriyel tasarımcılar malzeme süreçlerine dahil olamamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, endüstriyel tasarımcıların malzeme konusunda yenilik üretme potansiyelini desteklemek adına, fikir geliştirme süreçlerinde kullanabilecekleri yabancılaştırma tekniği önerisi geliştirilmiştir. Bu öneriyi geliştirirken fikir geliştirme ve yaratıcı düşünce yöntemlerinin yanı sıra bir edebi biçem olan yabancılaştırma tekniği incelenmiştir. Bir yandan da tasarım alanyazınındaki malzeme bazlı çalışmalar incelenerek malzemelerin anlamlandığı boyutlar, fiziksel özellikler, ki bu özellikler ürünlere ve diğer malzemelerin özelliklerine bağlıdır, pratikler ve sosyal bağlam olarak analiz edilmiştir. Daha sonra bu boyutlarda yabancılaştırmaya odaklanılarak, yabancılaştırma tekniğinin edebiyat ve dilbilim alanından, malzeme geliştirme alanına kavramsal olarak uygulanması konusunda egzersizler geliştirilmiştir. Yabancılaştırma tekniğinin fikir geliştirme sürecinde kullanılmasına dair bu egzersizler, her birine yaklaşık 90 öğrencinin katıldığı 3 dizi çalıştayda denenerek nitel yöntemlerle değerlendirilmiş ve yenilik, nitelik ve akış açısında başarılı olduğu görülmüştür. Modelin son hali, tanımlı bir proje kapsamında 14 öğrenci ile denenmiştir. Özetle, bu çalışma ile hem malzeme bazlı tasarım yaklaşımları için tasarımcıya yol gösteren bir model sunulmuş hem de genel anlamda fikir geliştirme süreçlerine uyarlanabilecek bir “yabancılaştırma” tekniği ortaya konmuştur.

Developing A Defamiliarizations Tool for Idea Generation in Materials-Based Design

Öz

While materials science works toward building a sustainable world, industrial designers are more often than not excluded from material processes. This study develops a defamiliarization tool to be used in idea generation processes for materials-based design with the aim of bringing materials into the creative domain of design. To develop this tool, idea generation methods and creativity literature are reviewed, alongside the defamiliarization technique as it appears in both literary and linguistic traditions. Alongside which, materials-based design literature is examined and the dimensions through which material qualities are enacted are analyzed as follows: physical qualities – deriving from products and other materials, practices, and social context. Building on this framework, the study develops a series of defamiliarization exercises focused on these dimensions. These exercise series are tested in 3 workshops, each of which hosted around 90 students, and qualitative evaluation concluded that the proposed defamiliarization exercises were successful in terms of novelty, quality, quantity, and flow. The finalized version was tested against a defined project brief, with 14 students. This study thus provides a tool to guide designers in material processes, while also introducing a defamiliarization mechanism applicable to idea generation methods more broadly.
