Com as problemáticas ambientais e sociais cada vez mais próximas, causadas pelo crescimento descontrolado e produção exagerada surge a necessidade de se refletir e contribuir para a melhora de qualidade de vida vinculada às questões ambientais. Em paralelo com a aproximação dessas problemáticas nota-se uma proliferação e banalização dos produtos \"sustentáveis\" causando inquietação e gerando uma série de questionamentos sobre a real sustentabilidade dos produtos. Neste sentido, observou-se a necessidade de estudos das relações entre sustentabilidade, design e comportamento, almejando a problematização da associação entre seus conceitos e como as intervenções práticas estão acontecendo nos mais variados segmentos de produtos. Para o desenvolvimento deste estudo, a pesquisa foi dividida em duas partes: a primeira apresenta um referencial teórico que envolve a relação da sociedade vinculada à questão da Imagem e Matéria e os conceitos de sustentabilidade e design sustentável; e a segunda etapa realiza um levantamento de produtos que se designam serem sustentáveis e uma análise a partir das leituras destes com base nos conceitos estudados. Desta forma puderam ser verificadas algumas articulações que vem sendo realizadas entre conceitos de sustentabilidade e o design no contexto atual. / Due to uncontrolled growth and exaggerated production, environmental and social issues get closer to us. This brings the need to reflect the quality of live linked to environmental matters and contribute to its improvement. In parallel with such approach of these problems, the \"sustainable\" products have been increasing. Such proliferation and trivialization of these products cause worry and generate a series of questions that arise about the \"real\" sustainability of the products. Therefore there is a need for studies of the interaction between sustainability, design and behaviour. Aiming to problematize the association between the concepts of sustainable design and the practical interventions that are happening in product segments, this research was divided into two parts: the first part presents a theoretical framework that involves the interaction of the society linked to the issue of Image and Material and the concepts of sustainability and sustainable design; the second part is a survey of products that are called sustainable and they have been analysed from a reading based on the studied concepts. Thus, it could be seen as sustainable design relates to the society and its products indicating a way to sustainability.

The research object of this work is the image formation of the three branded meat shops in the Mažeikiai. The research aim- to create work of specialized meat shops reputation. Objectives analysis the sense of organization reputation and create run; to explain the ways of organization image; to examine the most important models of image making and to evaluate their advantages and disadvantages; to investigate the factors, that have influence in image formation; to present general theoretical model of mini shops image formation. In the process of research were used different methods. In the theoretical part of the thesis was used a comparative analysis and discussion on the concept of image. A questionnaire was used as a quantitative research method with meat product consumers in Mazeikiai. Receive results was generalized with statistical methods and graphs. Besides in the process of research was used the verbal documents analysis and a personal observation. The first chapter “Image essence of the organizations and peculiarity of it formation” is intended to review what is the reputation of organization and what are the principles of image found. The special attention was focused on the research models and methods of organization image. Up to now boffin of management found 7 models of organization reputation and... [to full text]
