Proposta de procedimento para desenvolvimento de produtos sustentáveis têxteis a partir de sobras dos materiais de Micro e Pequenas Confecções / The propoise procedures for develoment of sustainable textile products from leftover materials of micro and small manufacturing

Fernanda Marinho Pereira da Silva 26 August 2015 (has links)
Através da nova interpretação e compreensão dos aspectos em relação moda identidade, design social, e da maneira como se encontra o comportamento da sociedade consumista, tende-se a elevar a demanda do indivíduo contemporâneo, preocupado com o futuro ambiental. O surgimento de novos cenários e atores indica uma maior visibilidade à postura de responsabilidade socioambiental na área de moda e possibilita a consolidação da sociedade contemporânea. Devido a estas premissas, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo propor procedimentos, utilizando como referência a metodologia projetual de Löbach para desenvolvimento de produtos sustentáveis têxteis a partir de sobras dos materiais das micro e pequenas confecções. A Metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica, que constitui o procedimento básico para os estudos monográficos, e a pesquisa exploratória, pois não requer a formulação de hipóteses para serem testadas. Ela se restringe por definir objetivos, buscar mais informações sobre determinado assunto de estudo e identificar qual o melhor método a ser utilizado. No caso deste projeto, a ideia foi adaptar a sintetização de Löbach no processo de design, relacionando-o com o processo de resolução de problemas e o processo criativo, em quatro iniciativas essenciais: definir claramente o problema (preparação); reunir informações sobre o problema, analisá-las e relacioná-las criativamente entre si (geração); criar alternativas de soluções para o problema, julgando-as segundo critérios estabelecidos (avaliação) e desenvolver a alternativa mais adequada, concretizando a (realização). Após a elaboração do projeto, comprovou-se que a metodologia utilizada se mostrou viável para o desenvolvimento de produtos sustentáveis, voltados para a sociedade e consumo / Through the new interpretation and understanding of the aspects about fashion-identity, social design, and how the behavior of the consumer society, tend to increase the demand of the contemporary individual, worried about the future. The emergence of new models and actors indicates a greater visibility to the posture of social and environmental responsibility in the area of fashion and enables consolidation of a contemporary society. Due to these premises, this research aimed to propose procedures, using as a reference the design methodology of Löbach for development of sustainable textile products from leftovers from materials of micro and small manufacturing. The methodology used was bibliographical research to which constitutes the basic procedure for the monographic studies and exploratory research because it does not require the formulation of hypotheses to be tested. She is restricted by set goals, get more information about a particular subject to study and identify the best method to be used, in the case of this project, the idea was to adapt the Löbach synthesis in the design process, linking it with the problem-solving process and the creative process, on four key initiatives to clearly define the problem (preparation); gather information about the problem, analyze them and relate them creatively with each other (generation); create alternative solutions to the problem, judging the second criteria (evaluation) and develop the most suitable alternative, establishing the (realization). After the elaboration of the project proved that the methodology used proved to be viable for the development of sustainable products, geared to society and consumption

Beatriz Chiavini Mendes de Carvalho Kelman 19 October 2012 (has links)
Com este projeto de pesquisa, que faz parte do Programa de Mestrado em Ciências da Comunicação, na Área de Concentração III - Interfaces Sociais da Comunicação da Linha de Pesquisa Políticas e Estratégias de Comunicação, buscou-se identificar e analisar os conteúdos verbais e imagéticos de campanhas na área de educação em saúde, em especial, sobre o diabetes, presentes em eventos do Dia Mundial do Diabetes ou relacionados a este, nos anos de 2010 e 2011. Essas campanhas foram realizadas por instituições de saúde públicas e privadas da cidade de São Paulo com materiais patrocinados e/ou veiculados por empresas farmacêuticas e de alimentos que utilizaram o design para organizar as mensagens sobre prevenção de enfermidades e/ou adoção de comportamentos saudáveis. A análise dos conteúdos das peças impressas das campanhas teve por base as teorias de comunicação social e linguagem visual. / With this research project, that participates in the Master Program in Communication Sciences, in the III Area of Concentration - Social Interfaces of Communication from the Main Line of Research Policy and Strategies of Communication, we sought to identify and analyze the content of verbal and pictorial campaigns in the health education area, particularly about diabetes, present in the World Diabetes Day events or related to this, occurred in 2010 and 2011. These campaigns were carried out by public and private health institutions of the city of São Paulo with materials sponsored and/or distributed by pharmaceutical and food companies that used the design to organize the messages about disease prevention and/or adoption of healthy behaviors. The analysis of the contents of the printed pieces of the campaigns was based on theories of social communication and visual language.

Augmented Urban Values : Virtual Gothenburg as a place for citizen dialogue and shared lived experiences

Klefbom, Sanna January 2021 (has links)
In the domain of social design, this thesis introduces a design project that explores a place-centric view on interaction design to address issues of participation, representation, and place. The project aims to envision possible futures of city-scaled digital twins as places that enable collective engagement within communities and between citizens and cities. It explores this aim with a methodology grounded in co-design- and ethnographic values, focusing on the place of Ringön in Gothenburg. The final design outcome of the study is an augmented reality-based application connected to the city-scaled digital twin of Gothenburg. The application introduces a concept that enables citizens to express location-based social and cultural values and engage in common concerns. It enables the City of Gothenburg to communicate with citizens and develop an enriched understanding of the identity and character of places in Gothenburg. The study hopes to contribute with knowledge to the body of work within social design that explores how sustainable smart cities can develop from a bottom-up perspective, in a more participatory and socially sustainable way.

El impacto del diseño de información en la reducción del riesgo de embarazo adolescente en la ciudad de Iquitos / The impact of information design on reducing the risk of teenage pregnancy in the city of Iquitos

Rodriguez Miñan, Arantxa Claudia 28 November 2019 (has links)
Esta investigación tiene como objetivo determinar la eficiencia comunicativa en la presentación de la información sobre educación sexual y planificación familiar en los materiales didácticos que se utilizan para poder contribuir a reducir el riesgo de embarazo adolescente en la ciudad de Iquitos. Es por ello que se planteó como hipótesis que los materiales didácticos sobre educación sexual no generan un impacto en los adolescentes, lo cual es perjudicial debido a que no pueden comprender las causas y efectos del embarazo. El tipo de investigación es descriptiva, la cual tiene como finalidad examinar los elementos visuales y materiales que utilizan los centros de salud de la ciudad de Loreto. Además, se busca analizar si son adecuados y si generan un impacto en la población adolescente. Asimismo, el diseño de la investigación es mixta, contando con un trabajo de campo el cual tuvo como finalidad obtener información directa de los mismos profesionales y especialistas en los temas de la investigación. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian que no existe materiales didácticos propios de la región. Además, que la información que brindan a las adolescentes es desactualizada, explícita y descargada de internet. También, se evidencia una falta de inversión económica por parte del Estado en el sector salud de la ciudad. Finalmente, se pudo determinar que los materiales didácticos sobre educación sexual que se emplean en los centros de salud no son herramientas adecuadas ni de gran impacto para las adolescentes. / This research aims to determine the communicative efficiency in the presentation of information on sexual education and family planning in the teaching materials that are used to help reduce the risk of teenage pregnancy in the city of Iquitos. That is why it was hypothesized that teaching materials on sexual education do not generate an impact on adolescents, which is harmful because they cannot understand the causes and effects of pregnancy. The type of research is descriptive, which aims to examine the visual and material elements used by health centers in the city of Loreto. In addition, it seeks to analyze if they are adequate and if they generate an impact on the adolescent population. Also, the design of the research is mixed, with a field work which was aimed at obtaining direct information from the same professionals and specialists in the research topics. The results obtained show that there are no teaching materials typical of the region. In addition, that the information they provide to adolescents is outdated, explicit and downloaded from the internet. Also, there is a lack of economic investment by the State in the health sector of the city. Finally, it was determined that the teaching materials on sexual education used in health centers are not adequate tools or of great impact for adolescent girls. / Trabajo de investigación

Krisur : A wearable can make the difference between life and death.

Troilo, Andrea January 2022 (has links)
Krisur is a project about a low energy device that works as a “lifesaving” object with the function of pairing, or connecting, the single individual to the Government in case of emergency. The aim of this is to explore and tackle new possibilities for connecting people to a no-hackable source or to a social system (e.g., Hesa Fredrik). This will also bring a reflection around geo-political transformation over time and in what way lo-fi technology is connected to it.

Sustainable Waste Treatment : Facilitating sustainable disposal of used garments

Xu, Nan January 2021 (has links)
Nowadays, with concerns about environmental and health issues, the awareness of more environmentally friendly and sustainable waste disposal is growing. However, due to the widespread disposal of waste items in the fashion field, such as landfills and incineration, the problems caused by these disposal methods cannot meet people’s sustainable needs for waste treatment. Therefore, the project is based on consumers, focusing on the sustainable treatment of used garments, and provides some possibilities for solving problems related to other types of used products.  In order to achieve this goal, this project starts from the literature review of garments disposal behavior, and through the understanding of the theories such as life cycle assessment and waste hierarchy, as well as the collection and analysis of user survey data, completed the design of the project solution. By reference to the theoretical framework and application of the methodological framework, the project finally proposed a solution composed of three consumer-oriented design ideas, mainly in the form of social design to facilitate people’s recycling, reuse and other sustainable disposals of used garments.

Design social et design d'évènement dans le Sud-Est tunisien : l'hétérotopie de l'espace ksourien. Une recherche-projet. / Social Design and Event Design in South-East Tunisia : Heterotopy of the Ksourian Space. A Project-grounded Research.

Ellouze, Nesrine 31 January 2019 (has links)
Le ksar (pluriel 'ksour'), cet espace architectural et patrimonial propre à la culture berbère (amazigh), était destiné autrefois à emmagasiner les biens et les réserves de provisions des tribus semi-nomades du Sud-tunisien qui en étaient propriétaires. Avec le temps et le passage à la modernité, il s’est produit un glissement de valeurs et de significations dans l’environnement social et culturel des populations établies dans ces lieux, provoquant ainsi une menace pour les ksour qui s'en sont trouvés délaissés ou abandonnés. La thèse fait l’hypothèse que le concept d’hétérotopie proposé par Michel Foucault pourrait permettre une lecture de ces sites susceptible d’ouvrir un espace de projet innovant afin de mettre en valeur les ruines des ksour derrière lesquelles, ainsi que le montre l’enquête de terrain que nous y avons conduite, se cachent des conflits institutionnels, sociaux et intergénérationnels. C’est dans une telle perspective, par la mise en œuvre d’une démarche de recherche-projet appuyée sur un projet de design d’événement qui s’est déroulé pendant quatre jours en avril 2018, que nous nous sommes employée à exploiter le gisement d’intelligence collective propre à la dynamique du système des acteurs liés à ce patrimoine archéologique et architectural délaissé et promis sinon à une simple exploitation touristico-économique. Nous croyons que par une telle approche inspirée de l’innovation sociale par le design (ou design social), il sera possible d’assurer aux ksour un avenir durable et culturellement fécond sans dénaturer leur signification et leur richesse historique, anthropologique et patrimoniale. / As an architectural and heritage space peculiar to Berber (Amazigh) culture, the ksar (plural ksour) was used in the past as a granary and storage space by its owners, the local semi-nomadic tribes of Southern Tunisia. With time and the change to modernity, a shift in the socio-cultural values and worldview of the local population led to the neglect or mere abandonment of the ksour. The thesis hypothesizes that the concept of heterotopia coined by Michel Foucault could help provide an interpretation of these sites leading to the opening of an innovative project space that would restore value to the ruins of the ksour, behind which, as highlighted by our field inquiry, there lie institutional, social, and intergenerational conflicts. It is in such prospect, through a project-grounded research approach grounded on an event design project that took place during four days in April 2018, that we ventured to capitalize upon the available collective intelligence resulting from the dynamics of the system of stakeholders connected with this archeological and architectural heritage, otherwise promised to a mere touristic-economic exploitation. We believe that such an approach, consonant with social innovation by design methodologies (or social design), will make it possible to secure a sustainable and culturally fruitful future to the ksour without compromising their historical, anthropological, and patrimonial richness and meaningfulness.

Design de exposição de design : três estudos sobre critérios projetuais para comunicação com o público

Silva, Gustavo Cossio da January 2011 (has links)
Este estudo trata de exposições de fins educativos que tenham como objetivo oferecer uma reflexão sobre design. Para tanto, importa conceber a exposição como modalidade de projeto, o que torna oportuna a fundamentação teórica em design de exposição, alternativa na área do design gráfico-ambiental. As bases conceituais do trabalho compreendem a exposição como produto que constitui variável na percepção dos visitantes. O objetivo geral é elaborar critérios projetuais a partir da análise, em três estudos, sobre as ações de organizadores e designers, com vistas à comunicação com o público. A pesquisa é de caráter exploratório, para a qual lançamos mão de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Os casos analisados, em três cidades do país, nos anos de 2010 e 2011, revelaram que, além de contribuir para a difusão do design, estes eventos constituem modos de refletir sobre os desafios do design e o papel do designer na contemporaneidade. / This study concerns educative exhibitions that aim to offer a reflection on design. Therefore the exhibition is conceived as a design type of project, which makes timely the theoretical foundations on exhibition design, an alternative in environmental-graphic design. The conceptual basis comprehends the exhibition as a product which is a variable in the visitors’ perception. The aim is to generate project criteria throughout the analysis in three studies regarding the actions of organizers and designers, considering the communication with the audience. The research is of exploratory kind, to which we lay hold of semi-structured interviews. The cases analyzed in three Brazilian cities during the years of 2010 and 2011 revealed that, besides its contribution to the diffusion of design, these events consist ways of reflecting about the challenges of design and the designer's role in contemporary society.
