This thesis focuses on relations between surface texture and brand identity in the field of Industrial Design, embracing texture as both a technical/functional characteristic and a source of brand perception. The work examines these relations within the military products sector, through a case study of a product design for the Turkish product manufacturer Aselsan. An empirical approach is taken, involving the evaluation of visual and physical surface texture designs by participants. The study was carried out in two stages. The first study focused on visual experience, and the second study focused on both visual and tactile experience. Overall, the aim is to investigate how various aspects of surface texture may be manipulated to communicate brand identity effectively. During the research process, surface texture features including the form of the surface textures, variations in the settlements on the surface, size differences, and settlement densities were examined. The results show that the manipulated surface texture features have an effect on brand perception. As a result of the evaluation specific to the brand identity of the relevant company, the following texture features come to the fore: high density positioning and their presentation as protrusions. Additionally, the research seeks to provide a new method and examples of 3D surface texture evaluation and data suitable for designers and engineers within or outside the military products sector to assist their decisions on 3D texture definition to help communicate a defined brand image.

Construing product materials: developing senso-attitudinal maps through repertory grid technique
Derviş, Barış; Börekçi, Naz Ayşe Güzide Z.; Department of Industrial Design (2021-1-6)
Designing material and product experiences is a complex process that requires a comprehensive understanding over subjective dimensions such as cultural and psychological backgrounds of the individual, multisensory relations, and product contexts. It is becoming more essential for a designer to understand how materials are perceived. There is a growing need for designers to achieve information sources that represent idiosyncratic data of the user anticipations towards perceived material qualities in particul...
Product names as a medium of communication from designers to target users
Khalaj, Javad; Pedgley, Owaın Francıs (2012-9-14)
This paper presents an empirical study into the names that people assign to products, based on visual form qualities. The study considers the relationship between a designer and target users of a product, within the context of communication. The emphasis is on meanings that are elicited from product names, specifically the communicative aspect of aesthetic, symbolic, and emotional characteristics of visual product form described through product names. A product name is considered as a symbolic description o...
Effects of color on the perception of texture
Kılıç, Yağmur; Börekçi, Naz A. G. Z..; Department of Industrial Design (2020)
Texture and color are essential design features which create hedonic and functional product qualities. They should be designed together to achieve the desired effects in product design. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of three colors; black, green, and orange, on the perception of three textures; radial, linear, and irregular. The chosen colors and textures are commonly used on the worldwide handheld communication radios. To discover the effects of the colors and the textures in term...
Empirical assessment of the influence of aesthetic properties on product pleasure
Sevener, Zeynep; Asatekin, Mehmet; Department of Industrial Design (2003)
This thesis analyzes the influence of the aesthetic properties of products on inducing the feeling of product pleasure on consumers. The emergence of the pleasurability issue and pleasure-based product design approach are presented to provide the background. The connection between the pleasurable products and the aesthetic properties is examined since the aesthetic properties are the contributors of product pleasure. The aesthetic properties of the products are identified. The importance of the properties w...
Mobile structures of santiago calatrava : other ways of producing architecture
Yıldız, Arzu Emel; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2007)
This thesis conceptualizes the term “movement” as a design medium for producing architecture. The Deleuzian discourse which defines “movement” as “mobile section of duration” comprises the theoretical frame of the study. Santiago Calatrava’s architectural thinking and practice constitute the pragmatic ground on which the Deleuzian formulation of movement is constructed. Mobile structures of Calatrava are analyzed to introduce some design tools that are used to utilize “movement” as a design medium. These de...
