Design criteria are changing and improving everyday because of this designers use different equipments for their desingns. Glass production which is diffucult to take a shape hence plastic meterials were common after World War II. Modern views and their strength transperent materials satisfied designers desires. After gained environment conclousness same plastics which are non recyling products were gave up to use. Light and high strength plastic which is a recyling material PMMA is very common to use PMMA as known as a brand which name is plexiglass in Turkey. Also this plastic materials have very effective features than others.. İn this study, transparent sheets, glass and PMMA which are used furniture production were studied. As a designer approach different examples and combine details are given.Combine details which are used furniture production were researched and PMMA panel's strength,variety and flexibility were suggested as an beneficial metarial. After the performance, for the office furnitures, there had been a suggestion on a material that brings positive reaction for its endurance, variation and elasticity to the PMMA plate which is more frequently preferred compared with glass. In the suggested material, putting galvanized matting string between the two PMMA plates resulted in stronger and more elasticity characteristics,compared to the standart PMMA plate.

    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2002) Talu, Nilüfer; Seçkin, Yavuz; Talu, Nilüfer; Seçkin, Yavuz; 02.04. Department of Industrial Design; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This study demonstrates the paradoxical cycle of modern life, which has simultaneously obliged to standardize the objects and individualize subjects. Under the impact of mechanistic look, conceptions of mobility and modularity emerge as affixed part of this paradoxical cycle.In the context of standardization and individualism, this study focuses on the birth of modern kitchen conceptions relating to the standardization of modern housing and the work process. Then the study addresses the transformation process of modern kitchen from stable architectural space into independent standardized mobile furniture. Thus, it gains great capacity by being in motion and possibility to separate itself from home and its context in order to encounter the sense of freedom, changeability and individuality. This study also focuses on modularized kitchen, which is standardized as much as it is divided into parts enriched by various sliding, rotating, folding and joining elements. So, the mobility has emerged as a conception that increased the possibilities of variations and changeability of modularized kitchen. Consequently, each moveable component has prepared the conditions of kitchen-in-motion that look for new directions towards transformable kitchen design.

    In this thesis it is intended to investigate the superiority of plastics as a material for a specific product design. Plastics with their intrinsic capabilities, have too many improved characteristics to offer to individuals which makes any research very valuable.When making this research, the methods to be employed were not only limited with library researches but also contained bilateral relations with various producers of either the material or the toys. Under the light of these findings and experiences the formation of the most convenient material was selected for the product. The second point was to design a toy and/or a system for children which would help them get prepared for the coming years. It is found out that, for children toys are more meaningful when combined with their imagination. That is why it is intended to design for preschool children when their imagination is as pure as it can be.Finally it is concluded that with the debut of plastics materials in individuals lives, the characterization of forms, functions and ideas were highly and easily achieved.

    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 1998) Rıza, Aslan; Özcan, Ahmet Can; Özcan, Can; 02.04. Department of Industrial Design; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This thesis is aimed on researching the creativity process that is concealed in the designprocess itself. The following chapters will include certain creativity concepts that were filtered out of a variety of processes. There are certain aspects to take into consideration as not only of a creative process but the progressive way of following certainmethods of design. The first chapter includes some examples on the blocks that ceasethe creativity in the design process. Examples will be given to display the way of keepingthe continuity of the creative mind. These are methods that designers use in daily life but are not aware of its existence. Processes will be included in the second chapter that will focus on the way of designing and methods of the design process. These methodswere included in order to give the creativity process an engineering pull-down andcease it from artistic dispersal. It could be seen that examples given from a bicycle designwill be included in all chapters. This is to uphold, and back-up the third chapter. In this chapter the case study of a bicycle design is included. The processes stated in the previouschapters were used in the process of the bicycle design.
