Emotional connections with the products increase product lifetimes, thus decreasing waste and providing prolonged value. In creating this emotional connection, personally meaningful data (sonic memories) offer benefits that cannot be obtained by any other means in determining the meaning and value of a personal artifact by adopting the personalization approach. However, adaptation and mass-customization that can be attained with conventional design and production methods are far from exploiting these potentials due to the nature of their inflexible and limited processes. This research presents a method namely, Interactive Data Transformation Interface (IDTI) that uses sound data connected to memories as a source of meaning and value by converting sound data into three-dimensional forms. Using a research through design approach, this transformation method is developed as a result of primary user research that generates the dimensions of this transformation (meaning, clarity, accessibility, aesthetics, social clarity, and permanence). IDTI is implemented in a remote design workshop and refined with insights from both studies regarding creating meaningful and valuable artifacts. Findings of the process and implications are discussed and presented in this research.

Exploration of the ways of empowering people in the design process through product personalization for prolonged product lifetimes
OZAN, EZGİ; Doğan, Çağla (2017-11-10)
Product personalization has many potentials in extending product lifetimes and sustainable consumption, through strengthening the emotional bond between people and their products. In addition, production and post-use of products need to be considered in the design process to develop design solutions in line with sustainability principles. Product personalization is defined in the study as, a process during which a product's aesthetic and functional attributes are defined, adapted or modified by the user dur...
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR EMOTIONAL DURABILITY AND PRODUCT LONGEVITY THROUGH PRODUCT CARE ACTIVITIES BY REPAIR ENTHUSIASTS
Yazirlıoğlu, Lilyana; Doğan, Çağla; Department of Industrial Design (2021-8-02)
Take-make-dispose behaviours as the basis of the linear economy model are challenged by the sustainable modes of consumption that aim to minimise the use of raw materials and waste production. The most prominent among these is the circular economy model, which resembles the production and consumption cycles to a living system, and proposes alternative systems where there is no such thing as waste but only food for another within the system (Ellen MacArthur Foundation, 2015). Therefore, the aim is to protect...
Design in Context Product Design through Local Initiatives
Doğan, Çağla (2002-07-17)
Current notions of sustainability within the field of product manufacturing largely depend on business strategies that are predominantly 'top-down ' approaches. However, it is theoretically and practically naive and also unworkable for conventionally structured large manufacturing businesses to simply put on the vestments of sustainability. Many of the structures, philosophies and raisons d'etre are inherently and systemically in conflict with an holistic understanding of sustainability. In order to positiv...
Bakım, Onarım ve Yükseltmeyi Destekleyen ve Kullanıcı Katılımını Güçlendiren Sürdürülebilirlik İçin Tasarım Yaklaşımları
Doğan, Çağla (2020-07-01)
Sustainable products and systems support the active participation of users in the stages of maintenance, repair and upgrading, and strengthens the user-product emotional bond. The prominent design approaches in this context include repair and adaptation practices in mass-produced products, integrated scales of design and production for sustainability, emotional durability and product-oriented personalisation, and system-oriented personalisation and open design. These approaches empower user engagement at di...
People’s empowerment in design process through product personalization for sustainability
Ozan Avcı, Ezgi; Doğan, Çağla; Department of Industrial Design (2019)
Product personalization has potentials in prolonging product lifetimes through strengthening person-product relationship. While designing products for sustainability, the factors such as local production, maintenance, repair, re-use, upgrade, etc. also need to be considered. In this context, this study focuses on the ways of empowering people in the design process through product personalization at the local level, and the implications of this for product design for sustainability. The study adopts research...
