Visual materials are often used to increase creativity in the design process. Current web content is quite rich in terms of visual materials. Search engines, on the other hand, provide suitable user interfaces to access these materials. In this study, we have developed Adobe Photoshop plug-ins to allow designers to access and use visual web content without leaving their design environment. Adobe Photoshop is a popular computer aided design tool among visual designers. The developed plug-ins facilitate both keyword-based and image-based search and enable material reuse within the Photoshop workspace.

Inspiration hunter: a software platform to support ideation in picture design Bal, Gülce; Tarı, Zehra Sibel; Department of Computer Engineering (2019) Visual materials are commonly used in creative design process as source of inspiration. Nowadays, many of these materials became accessible on the web by means of the image search engines. In this thesis, we developed a platform that adds image hunt and style adaptation features to Adobe Photoshop which is popular among designers as a computer aided design tool. Designers can search via a keyword or an image without changing their working environment and reuse the search results by using the facilities of A...
Tasarım Eğitiminde Duyusal Farkındalık ve Yaratıcılık İlişkisi Üzerine Onur, Dilara; Zorlu, Tülay (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2018-6-19) Yaratıcılığın tasarım eğitimindeki yeri ve önemi tartışılmaz bir gerçektir. Bu bağlamda tasarım eğitiminin merkezi olan tasarım stüdyolarında da, yaratıcı düşüncenin ortaya çıkarılması ve geliştirilmesine yönelik farklı yaklaşım ve metotlar denenmektedir. Tasarım eğitiminde yaratıcı düşüncenin gelişiminde etkin olan bu yöntemlerin bir kısmı duyusal farkındalık kazandırmayı hedefleyen stratejilerle ilerlemektedir. Ana hedefi yaratıcılığın gelişimi olan bu yeni arayışlar, bilişsel ve duyuşsal (affective) stra...
Information and interaction requirements for software tools supporting analogical design Töre Yargın, Gülşen (2015-05-01) One mode of creative design is for designers to draw analogies that connect the design domain (e.g., a mechanical device) to some other domain from which inspiration is drawn (e.g., a biological system). The identification and application of analogies can be supported by software tools that store, structure, present, or propose source domain stimuli from which such analogies might be constructed. For these tools to be effective and not impact the design process in negative ways, they must fit well with the ...
Speculations on the city in architectural drawing: dogma as a contemporary critique Karaköy, Nilay; Kömez Dağlıoğlu, Esin; Department of Architecture (2022-8-29) Drawings have become a potential design tool in architecture, not limited to the representation of the object. Since they are more than representations of their objects, they become a conceptual model of reality rather than a reproduction. For this reason, the drawings are not limited to architectural objects, they are also related to the context in which the design is built, namely the city. Constructed with a particularly dense pattern of roads and buildings, the modern city has been an important part of ...
Space-error Kerti, Erkan; Barlas, Mehmet Adnan; Department of City and Regional Planning (2014) Creativity is considered important in design methods yet they do not give enough courage to designer for being more creative in design process. The reason, why this courage taking from designer, stems from the complexity of production and planning process of modern world and designer needs to analyze every data in order to provide best solution for every agent’s needs. Designer starts to be a connector between agents, instead of being creative and experiencing new knowledge from the design process. Attempt ...
