Abstract (sommario):

This thesis argues that women were seminal to the development of interior design as a discipline and profession in Sydney, Australia. Covering the period from the 1920s to the 1960s, this study identifies Thea Proctor, Nora McDougall, Margaret Lord, Phyllis Shillito and Mary White as foundational leaders who progressively advanced interior design in Sydney through individual and collective understandings of design. Focussing on their contributions to this development, this study explains complex interrelationships between women and modernity in interior design. This emergence of the discipline and profession in Sydney situates the initiatives of these five women at a transitional phase of the field???s global development when ???interior decoration??? is challenged by modern attitudes and artistic theories of ???design???. Working as individuals, Proctor and her successors advance the profession???previously characterised as a ???natural??? pursuit for women of ???taste??? and ???style??????by their artistic, rational and practical approaches to interior design. At a time when no distinct discipline exists in Sydney, the women offer instruction and forge new directions by reformulating previous overseas traditions: incorporating a wide-range of aesthetic and theoretical conceptions of design, demonstrating common and different approaches to practice, and integrating changes in requisite knowledge and skills in response to their times. The women???s programs are conventional and progressive, common and diverse, universal and particular in content and meaning. Working within a variety of settings, the women importantly establish professional jurisdiction situating interior design in a modernist context. Significantly, their contributions challenge past readings that have diminished the early women of interior design, and at the same time, embody all the conflicts, ruptures, paradoxes and contradictions that are cental to modernity. This research redresses the lack of institutional history of interior design in Sydney and links theories of modernism and modernity to issues of gender and profession to explain the women???s significant contributions to interior design at a critical juncture of the field???s development. As such, their stories and legacy of design in Sydney contribute to a wider picture of women and modernity in interior design.

Abstract (sommario):

This creative project is a brief study of clay tile surface decoration, using commercial 4" x 4" and 6" x 6" tiles, as well as handmade slab-rolled and slumped molded forms. The exploration of surface decoration was based on historical research. An attempt was made to bring these findings into a contemporary personal statement.In my research I found a rich and varied history of clay tiles and their functional as well as decorative uses. Historically, tiles have been used on floors, walls, pillars, ceilings, pathways, rooftops, doorways, and fireplaces in architectural structures. In this project I have explored the use of clay tiles as decorative and functional elements for a countertop and tabletop, and as decorative elements of freestanding objects (boxes). I have also experimented with a non-traditional approach of tile making, using traditional materials, by changing the tiles' two-dimensional surface to a three-dimensional form.

Abstract (sommario):

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between windows and interior design preferences in enclosed office spaces. The research sample consisted of forty executives from NASA. Subjects were asked to plan the interior design of an executive office space (simulated with a scale model) in response to four different window types and then asked to choose one of the four window types for the space. Subjects' reactions were observed and questioned throughout the experiment, to study the relation between windows and interior design preferences. Window functions and configurations, subjects' age, sex, country of origin, activity, and interaction levels were investigated as independent variables influencing the dependent variable perception of the relation between windows and interior design preferences. The data was analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and inâ depth theoretical analysis of individual responses.

Subjects' consciousness of the relation between windows and interior design preferences increased as activity and interaction levels increased. Window configurations and functions influenced interiorÂ· design preferences, especially furniture arrangement and color selection preferences. Interior design preferences influenced the choice of a window type to a considerable extent, perhaps as much as view and daylight. An overview of the study indicates that windows and interior design preferences are parts of a cyclic inter-relationship where each factor influences the other and therefore should each be considered with equal importance by both architects and interior designers.

Abstract (sommario):

Thesis (MTech (Interior Design))--Cape Technikon, 1993.
The origins of the research activities which constitute this dissertation can be traced to a proposal in 1991 to write a history assignment on the retrospective influence of interior design in the factory environment. A subsequent search for relevant information proved largely unsuccessful, resulting in the temporary suspension of further investigations into the topic. However, these enquiries provoked a piquant interest in the feasibility of applying interior design principles in the factory environment. The challenge presented by the lack of reference to the role of interior design in the factory environment, in conjunction with a dearth of literature pertinent to the history of industrial architecture, served as impetus for the background investigation which led to a successful proposal that my National Higher Diploma be based on the practical design of factory interiors.

Abstract (sommario):

Decoration holds a contested position in built environment scholarship. Largely marginalised by Modernist claims of material and structural integrity, decoration is often sidelined as the most temporal and superficial of built environment practices. A common misunderstanding is that decoration and interior design merely make built space fashionable. The thesis challenges the misconception of interior design as gratuitous embellishment, and demonstrates how a reconsideration of the term decoration makes new insights available for both contemporary practice and scholarship in interior design. I contend that if decoration can be considered a vehicle through which ideas, such as the cultural veneration of appearances and the social motivations of fashion are explored, it can be understood as representative of contemporary cultural concerns.

Abstract (sommario):

The two major objectives of this creative project were to provide students a way to visualize and apply the elements and principles of design, and to aid in better comprehension and retention of the interior design principles. Both objectives were accomplished by: enables hands-on-experience in redecorating the interior to apply the principles of design, and (2) developing an appropriate unit plan, with accompanying lesson plans and activity sheets that can be used with the model house while teaching interior design.Applying new wall, window, and floor treatments will enable students to visualize as well as apply the interior design concepts. The unit plan provides activities as well as evaluations for the students to reinforce their knowledge of the interior design principles.

Abstract (sommario):

This research investigated Computer Aided Design (CAD) education in the interior design. program focusing on educators' opinions about creativity aspects including computer application, teaching materials and teaching methods as well as other trends in CAD education. A questionnaire was sent to one hundred eighty-two members of the Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC).

A frequency distribution was used on 69 usable returned surveys to describe the sample characteristics and to determine the teaching materials and support. Means and T-tests were employed to examine if a significant difference of opinions toward CAD integration existed between designers based on creativity, teaching materials, and teaching approaches.

Findings indicate that educators are thinking positively regarding the creativity aspects of teaching CAD. There was no significant difference between IBM educators and Apple Macintosh educators in terms of opinions concerning creativity and teaching approaches and also no significant difference in the educators who are using more flexible teaching approaches and the educators who are using more rigid teaching approaches in terms of creativity. Educators thought CAD courses are most helpful for students' future careers. Educators remarked that their college, department, and other faculties are generally very supportive. Overall the educators had fewer than 4 years of experience in teaching CAD. One or two CAD educators were teaching in each interior design program. IBM personal computer, AutoCAD software, instructor prepared tutorials were the most used teaching materials.

Abstract (sommario):

Considérant qu'un bâtiment « clos et couvert » ne représente encore qu'un « potentiel d'habitation », en quoi la qualification de l'intérieur a-t-elle affaire à l'architecture ? Appartient-elle ou non, in fine, au projet architectural ? Il s'agit, pour commencer, de fonder une histoire qui n'existe pas, au croisement de l'architecture, de la décoration et du design, de définir les termes en jeu dans l'« habiter», ses métiers, la notion d' « architecture intérieure », une typologie de relations entre l'architecture et ses espaces intérieurs. L'intégration de l'habiter au projet architectural, considérée comme légitime et revendiquée par la majorité des architectes contemporains, est en réalité le fruit d'un lent processus historique, qui s'étend de l'invention de l'architecture comme art libéral à partir du XVe siècle jusqu'à la « synthèse des arts » Moderne, qui, après les premières Gesamtkunstwerk de la fin du XIXe, en représente l'aboutissement idéologique au début du XXe. La période 1949-1972 correspond à un retournement de cette situation, processus inverse de « décrochement des murs », rupture historique en même temps que retour cyclique aux origines d'une architecture-abri dont l'habitabilité est fondée par l'objet. Au milieu du XXe siècle, l'autonomie originelle de l'intérieur, n'allant plus de soi, doit être redécouverte et, désormais, conceptuellement fondée. La thèse met en évidence les mécanismes qui aboutissent finalement, à la fin des années 1960, à réinventer théoriquement cette indépendance de l'intérieur vis-à-vis du bâti
Considering that an “enclosed and covered" building represents only the ''potential of inhabiting," what does the concept of the interior have to do with architecture? Does it or does it not belong, in the end, to the architectural project? It is a matter, to start, to construct an historical narrative that doesn't exist, one that is at the crossroads of architecture, decoration and design, to define the terms at play in the word "inhabit": its arts and trades, the notion of "interior architecture," a typology of relationships between architecture and its interior spaces. The integration of inhabited space into the architectural project, considered legitimate and acknowledged by most contemporary architects, is in reality the fruit of a slow historical process that stretches from the invention of architecture as a liberal art in the 15th century up to the Modern "synthesis of the arts" that, following the first Gesamtkunstwerks of the late 19th century, represents that process's ideological completion in the early 20th. The period from 1949 to 1972 corresponds to a reversal of this synthesis, an inverse process of dissociating from walls. It is an historic rupture at the same time as a cyclic return to the origins of a shelter-architecture for which habitability is based on the object. In the mid-20th century, the original autonomy of the interior, no longer self-evident, must be rediscovered and, henceforth, established conceptually. The thesis reveals the mechanisms that culminate, in the late 1960s, in the theoretical reinvention of the independence of the interior relative to the structure

Abstract (sommario):

Computer-aided design has been integrated into the design process primarily in the latter stages as a drafting tool for detailing and accuracy rather than incorporated into the early stages as a design tool for enhancing ideational fluency. Pencil-based design (i.e., hand drawing and sketching) has traditionally been the graphic medium in the ideation process to aid in externalizing and manipulating designers' ideas. The early, creative design phases require the design medium that is used during schematic ideation yield to the deSigner's needs in generating, communicating, and evaluating ideas (Marshall, 1992). The integration of the computer-based method into schematic ideation may impact the design process by possibly affecting the designer's creative abilities and the resulting creative aspects of the design solution. This study examined the products of creativity to determine if differences exist in creativity ratings of design solutions generated using two design methods - pencil-based and computer-based - in the preliminary design phases. Interior design students (n=40) used the two design methods and generated design solutions for a small restaurant project. An established instrument was used by eight design educators to evaluate the design solutions on creathlity and six other design merit. aspects. The process of creativity was also examined and the perceptions of the interior design students were assessed regarding the use of the deSign methods and the influences on creativity.

Abstract (sommario):

This research investigated the extent of computer usage in the interior design profession including attitudes toward computers, computer applications, and computer equipment usage. A questionnaire was sent to five hundred professional members of the American Society of Interior Designers across the nation.

The frequency distribution was used on 169 usable data to describe the sample background characteristics and to determine the computer equipment utilization. Means and TV test were employed to examine if a significant difference of opinion toward computers existed between designers based on experience on computers, size of organizations, and type of projects.

Findings which were statistically significant indicated that computer-experienced and non-residential interior designers had more positive attitudes toward computers. More computers had been incorporated into non-residential interior designersâ offices. Overall, interior designers from various backgrounds had the same opinion in believing that computers were not cost-effective for drafting application for most interior designers or for their own establishments at present. The most popular computer applications in this study were billing, accounting, financial management, specification, and business correspondence. Furthermore, the IBM personal computer was found to be the most used microcomputer in this study.

Abstract (sommario):

This paper explores the relationship between place in installation art and its relevance to the practice of placemaking in a hospital setting. The discussion draws on phenomenology, psychodynamic theory and contemporary art, in particular the author's art experience of places, their formal qualities and potential meanings, along with, an examination of what creates an embodied sense of being contained at home ( emotionally and physically). Some of the questions posed for discussion include; what is it about places that becomes inherent to memory and shapes its form? How do places impact on what we do there and who we are? Is place more significant in memory for a young child or someone in a vulnerable state of being (as in the hospital setting)? Process issues, along with physical outcomes, in installations and in the hospital projects are discussed.

Abstract (sommario):

This study was conducted to explore interior design students' perceptions and attitudes toward creativity in design problem solving using CADD versus conventional drafting tools and to research whether CADD stifles or encourages students' creativity in that manner. Students' level of CADD perf onnance, past experience with CADD or other microcomputer software and level of CADD problems were used as the independent variables for this study. During the last two weeks of the spring semester 1989, 32 interior design students, who comprised the population for this study, were given two design problems, one to be done with CADD and the other with conventional drafting tools. After that period students were asked to fill out a survey questionnaire and participate in a group discussion. The collected data then was a subject of a descriptive and analytical statistical study. Findings of this study showed no relationship between students' level of CADD experience and their attitudes toward using CADD in creative design problem solving. On the other hand, a significant relationship was found between the level of CADD problems that students had and their attitudes toward CADD. As a result, although students liked using CADD in design and 78% of them did not feel intimidated by it, more than 65% of the students felt that they could come up with more design ideas with conventional drafting tools than with CADD. Most of the students attributed this attitude to their long experience with design and drafting tools. Other problems that caused discomfort to students when using CADD in design were lack of knowledge of DOS commands, unfamiliarity with computer hardware and software problems, and their limited time to work on computers.

Abstract (sommario):

This research investigated the extent of computer usage in interior design organizations in 1988. These findings were then compared to research completed in 1985. This research is intended as a continuing study to document the changing field of computer applications. Four areas of information were analyzed that included designers~ background information, prevailing attitudes about computers, and current computer hardware and software utilization within the interior design profession. Finally, the results also document any changes in percentages of computer equipment utilization between 1985 and 1988. A questionnaire was sent to five hundred professional members of ASID across the nation. A total of 171 responses was used to draw a comparative analysis. Frequency distributions were used to describe the sample background characteristics and to report computer equipment utilization. The students t test was used to test the differences in attitudinal means between 1985 and 1988. A populations proportions test was used to statistically report any changes in percentages of equipment utilization. The 1988 findings which were statistically significant indicate that CADD (Computer-Aided Design and Drafting) users reflect more positive opinions towards computers than non-CADD users. Overall, more computers are being utilized in 1988 than 1985. Both microcomputers and mini/mainframe computer usage has increased. CADD utilization has increased significantly. IBM and IBM-compatible computer equipment systems were found to be the most frequently utilized type of systems. The most popular applications were billing, accounting, business correspondence, and specification writing.

Abstract (sommario):

Thesis (MTech (Interior Design))--Cape Technikon, Cape Town,1996
This research project has endeavoured to analyse the extent to which craft ideas and techniques are combining with technological skills in order to formulate an identity for Western Cape furniture design. This identity has been shown to be strongly linked to the determinants of style". which include the national striving for a South African zeitgeist. a sense of unified spirit. The problems of eclecticism are discussed in the light of superficial ethnic cooption. The new craft of the Western Cape (and more specifically Cape Town) of South Africa. is represented against the background of the old craft of the Arts and Crafts Movement in Britain at the turn of the century. Those old methods and ideas influenced the Cape Colony especially when it was under British rule. This dissertation shows that the new craft ideas and methods are synonymous with the new ideology of South Africa. a new craft for a new South Africa. The designers and practical work selected to be part of this research all share a common approach in their positive attitude towards experimenting with new techniques and using available resources to produce quality furniture which is accessible to most consumers. The work of four design groups: Greenspace. Metropolis. Flying Cow and the Montebel70 Smithy are discussed in terms of the objectives of this research which are essentially linked to the unravelling of the determinants of style and their relation to the concept identity in the South Africa which has succeeded the first free and fair general elections of April 1994.

This research entails a close analysis of the contemporary home environment. The study of the home environment and the relationship between domestic spaces and residents is a noteworthy trend in design studies. This opens up the possibility of investigating gender influence on interior design. This study focuses on the role of women in designing living spaces’ interiors, to unveil the women's role and participation in their home environment. The main focus of this study is the design role of women in family living rooms, particularly in the context of Jeddah city, Saudi Arabia. The study articulates how women leave identity footprints on the space they have designed and used. My research indicates that the interior design of any space is more complex than simply shaping the use of space; it also reinforces the woman’s influence. The methodological framework has been structured into two main approaches: a case study approach, which involved in-depth case studies of living spaces, and an ethnographical approach, which involved in-depth interviews with middle-class housewives in their living rooms. The latter approach aimed to seek information about experiences, performances, interactions and values in the home environment, and enables identity presentation in the family living room. In addition, associated methods, such as photographic and video records, coding the living space features and visual observation of the living room were used to document every detail of the living space, to enrich data collection and unpack the environmental meanings. These mixed methods helped to understand the reality of women’s home experiences and provide a compelling portrait of women’s roles and identities within their living spaces. The main theoretical paradigms are Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity and Erving Goffman’s work on the presentation of self in social interaction, to investigate the gender roles and types of performance in the domestic living rooms. The practice of structuring the living room, furnishing and decorating the space interiors and the spatial arrangement illustrate the different circumstances in which women play their roles and have influence in distinct ways in the living rooms’ contexts. How Saudi women use the living space for their private activities and social relationships is examined, to investigate the presentation of Saudi women’s identity and position in the home and beyond. This research has explored Saudi women’s performativity through their design experience and everyday engagement with the interior space and objects within their domestic living rooms; these performances represent their priorities in various roles through which social visibility is assumed. This research has established a new understanding of what goes on behind the closed doors of Jeddah homes. It has been found that Saudi housewives (with no formal interior design education or qualifications) dominate the design of domestic interiors. A new group of designers has been identified, who need to be recognised and acknowledged. In this research context, these Saudi housewives in Jeddah are amateur homemakers and interior designers, designing their home spaces and doing the job like any other professional designers. In this case, they must be acknowledged socially.

Abstract (sommario):

Este trabalho consiste no estudo sobre a utilização dos estilos vintage e retrô nos arranjos domésticos, considerando a ordem decorativa, as relações entre moda e decoração, os significados atribuídos aos artefatos, a construção e a representação de identidades. A pesquisa tem como objetivo compreender as características do vintage e do retrô, explorar suas maneiras de apropriação e constituição enquanto estratégias para a personalização dos ambientes domésticos. Tem como principais fontes os discursos encontrados nas revistas Casa Claudia e Casa e Jardim, especializadas em decoração, publicadas no período de 2002 a 2011. Nas reportagens, tanto os textos quanto as imagens são recursos importantes para a compreensão dos tipos de arranjos caracterizados como vintage, cuja principal propriedade está no uso de artefatos do passado, ou como retrô, classificados como objetos que se aproveitam de recursos tecnológicos atuais, mas que remetem ao passado. Através de algumas reportagens veiculadas, pretendo discutir a importância da cultura material como recurso para a construção de modelos de estilo de vida. Embora o discurso das revistas privilegie o entendimento do vintage e do retrô como formas de personalização e expressão das individualidades, quero destacar seu caráter social e cultural, evidenciando o conjunto de regras e significados que regulam suas formas de uso.
This work is a study on the use of vintage and retro styles in domestic arrangements, considering the decorative order, the relationship between fashion and interior design, the meanings attributed to artifacts, the construction and representation of identities. The research aims to understand the characteristics of the vintage and retro, explore their ways of appropriation and constitution as strategies for customizing home environments. Its main sources discourses were found in Casa Claudia and in Casa e Jardim magazines, specializing in decoration, published between 2002-2011. In the reports, both the texts and images are important features for understanding of the types of arrangements characterized as vintage, whose main property is the use of artifacts from the past, or as retro, classified as objects that take advantage of current technological resources, but that refer to the past. Through some articles published, I intend to discuss the importance of material culture as a resource for building models lifestyle. Although the discourse of magazines favors the understanding of vintage and retro as forms of customization and expression of individuality, I want to highlight their social and cultural nature, showing the set of rules governing their meanings and forms of use.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2011.
Customers expect from a store that displays expensive products to make an effort to decorate the store with atmospheric elements to create a prestige atmosphere. The four stores that the participants visited target upper-class customers and display expensive products. One of the participants mentioned that the atmosphere in Hip Hop remind her of a take-away restaurant. Hip Hop was making no effort to decorate its stores to create a hedonic experience for its customers. They were relying on their well-known brand name to sell their products. In the long run, this strategy will not be effective as the competition gets tougher and more brands enter the market. High-class fashion stores focus more on hedonic customers. Customers do not need to buy expensive clothes as there are many discount stores that could fulfil their clothing needs. In order for high-class fashion stores to attract customers they need to create a hedonic experience for their customers in the store. The customers must want to enter the store and spend time in the store. Atmospheric elements can attract customers to the store and influence the time they spend in the store. It is important that new fashion stores have the right atmospheric design in their stores. New stores cannot rely on a name as this is not well known. The atmospheric design of a store tells customers what they can expect in the store. One of our main findings is that there is a difference between the atmospheric designs in shopping centres. The fashion stores in the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town use atmospherics in their stores to create a prestige atmosphere for their upper-class customers. On the other hand, the atmospheric designs in the fashion stores in Canal Walk, which attracts middle-class customers, had a lower quality and were not regarded to be as prestige as those of the V&A Waterfront stores. The most expensive merchandise was also found in the fashion stores in the V&A Waterfront. Most of the stores in our sample use some atmospheric elements. However, the combination of the atmospheric elements in the stores did not always match. The participants viewed the atmospheric design as a whole and it was important to them that all the atmospheric elements fit together. The participants were noticeably disappointed with a store that did not make use of atmospherics to enhance its customers’ shopping experience. They found the store too plain as the storeowner did not make any effort to decorate the store. When they entered a store that did make use of atmospherics, the participants mentioned that they would like to spend more time in the store.

Abstract (sommario):

Within media and communications studies, questions of taste have often been associated with the dichotomy of high versus popular culture. The French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu has also used mass media products in his studies of class determined tastes and dispositions. In this paper the author uses the theoretical framwork of Bourdieu to examine aspects of social class and legitimate taste in the interior design magazine "Sköna Hem", a market leading magazine within it's genre of lifestyle magazines in Sweden. A specific type of feature article, where a real-life home is portrayed, is studied using the critical discourse analysis of Norman Fairclough. The homes portrayed are predominantly affluent and display elements of conspicuous consumtion as mediated through legitimate taste and cultural capital. Common traits are identified in writing style as well as the furnishings of the homes portrayed. Deviations from the norm are also discussed. The author also discusses text production with an emphasis on the impact of informal chriteria of quality on the selection of homes portrayed. The results show that the aesthetic ideals represented in the magazine correlate well to the "aesthetic disposition" described by Bourdieu as closely tied to haute bourgeois habitus. Shared discoursive elements include an emphasis on form as a characteristic of quality, an attitude of detachment as a way of relating to the objects of culture and a distancing from questions of economic neccessity. These elements are projected rhetorically through modality markers of high affinity, leaving the impression of a general defintion of style and beauty. Given that these results are representative of lifestyle journalism as a whole, the author interprets this as a hegemonizing process wherein a subjective defintion of taste typical of the haute bourgeois comes to represent an absolute. She proposes that this contributes to a pathologizing of powerless groups in society.

Abstract (sommario):

Dao (Way) The Way that can be experienced is not true; The world that can be constructed is not true. The Way manifests all that happens and may happen; The world represents all that exists and may exist. To experience without intention is to sense the world: To experience with intention is to anticipate the world. These two experiences are indistinguishable; Their construction differs but their effect is the same. Beyond the gate of experience flows the Way'. Which is ever greater and more subtle than/he world. Lao-Tzu, TaoDeChing, tr. Peter A. Merel This thesis is a reflective practitioner autoethnographic account of the way in which a Chinese interior design firm, through inspiration from Chinese philosophy (as exemplied in the beginning quotes), developed and used a reflective practitioner knowledge management system, called kBlogCentral, based around web-based blogs. The objective of setting up kBlogCentral was to build a simple, low cost knowledge management system for managing knowledge regarding various projects among the staff. All members of the firm are encouraged to perform reflective practitioner research and publish their knowledge as part of virtual teams regarding their professional practice. This reflective practitioner study depicts the rationale, process, and implications of building the system especially regarding inspiration from traditional and contemporary Chinese philosophy as this is seen as a culturally appropriate philosophical underpinning. The research outcome, present d throughout the thesis, is a rich description and reflections of employing action reflective practitioner research and a Web technology on the Internet, called Blog to manage knowledge in the interior design company in the light of Chine e thinking. Blog technology is mainly manifested in interactive websites that allow for rich Web based interaction and communication. The research question is: "How did the process of developing an using a Blog-based reflective practitioner knowledge management system, through inspiration from Chinese philosophy, change the professional practice of member of a Chinese interior design firm?" As part of answering this question, I report on my attempts to inspire change in the purpose, behaviour and underlying culture of a Chinese design firm aspiring to transform its management and practice. The major arena for this transformation is the KBlogCentral knowledge management system. The "Dao " (way) to such transformation is the member of the firm employing heuristic elf-reflective action research to 'find it future', with and through its people. In this process I have reported on innovative and, to my mind, valuable discoveries in knowledge elicitation and methods of integrating the views f my colleagues. This doctoral thesis, reporting on my finding of these discoveries, is my contribution to knowledge within the academic information systems, design, and management fields. The research reveals that knowledge, as a social product of human interactions, does not exist outside an agent - human beings. Thus the main role of knowledge management is to support social human interactions instead of just employing information technology to manipulate data, information and explicit knowledge as advocated by the functionalist approach. Knowledge management practices in China are found to be highly influenced by the contemporary interpretations of strands of traditional Chine e philosophy. The existence of a linguistic divide, resulting from some obsolete or misinterpreted doctrines of traditional Chinese philosophy, impedes the processes of creating and sharing knowledge in China. This thesis is a b ginning endeavour to critically examine these obsolete and distorted doctrines as a contribution towards a modem form of Chinese philosophy revitalizing Chinese to meet the challenges of a growing knowledge economy. Thus an undercurrent of heuristic hope runs through this thesis in that, within technology originating from and dominated by the West, this thesis reveals how knowledge management practice in China can be inspired by Chinese philosophy.

Abstract (sommario):

This research addresses the effect of pedagogical ways-of-knowing in higher education design programmes such as Graphic Design, Interior Design, Fashion, and Industrial Design. One problematic aspect of design studio pedagogy is communication between teachers and students about the aesthetic visual meaning of the students’ designed objects. This problematic issue involves ambiguous and divergent ways-of-knowing the design meaning of these objects. The research focus is on the design teacher role in design studio interactions, and regards pedagogical ways-of-knowing as the ways in which teachers expect students to know visual design meaning. This pedagogical issue is complicated by the fact that there is no agreed-upon corpus of domain knowledge in design, so visual meaning depends greatly on the social knowledge retained by students and teachers. The thesis pursues an explanation of pedagogical ways-of-knowing that is approached through the philosophy of critical realism. How it is that particular events and experiences come to occur in a particular way is the general focus of critical realist philosophy. A critical realist approach to explanation is the use of abductive inference, or inference as to how it is that puzzling empirical circumstances emerge. An abductive strategy aims to explain how such circumstances emerge by considering them in a new light. This is done in this study by applying Luhmann’s theory of the emergence of cognition in communication to teacher ways-of-knowing in the design studio. Through the substantive use of Luhmann’s theory, an abductive conjecture of pedagogical ways-of-knowing is mounted. This conjecture is brought to bear on an examination of research data, in order to explain how pedagogical ways of-knowing constrain or enable the emergence of shared visual design meaning in the design studio. The abductive analysis explains three design pedagogical ways-of-knowing: design inquiry, design representation and design intent. These operate as macro relational mechanisms that either enable or constrain the emergence of shared visual design meaning in the design studio. The mechanism of relation is between design inquiry, design representation and design intent as historical knowing structures, and ways-of-knowing in respect of each of these knowing structures. For example, design inquiry as an historical knowing structure has over time moved from ways-of-knowing such as rationalistic problem solving to direct social observation and later to interpretive cultural analysis. The antecedence of these ways-of-knowing is important because communication about visual meaning depends upon prior knowledge, and teachers may then reproduce past ways-of-knowing. The many ways-of-knowing that respectively relate to design inquiry, design representation and design intent are shown to be communicatively formed and recursive over time. From a Luhmannian perspective, these ways-of-knowing operate as variational distinctions that indicate or relate to the knowing structures of design inquiry, design representation and design intent. This is the micro-level operation of pedagogical ways-of-knowing as relational mechanisms in design studio communication. Design teachers’ own ways-of-knowing may then embrace implicit way-of-knowing distinctions that indicate the knowledge structures of design inquiry, design representation and design intent. This implicit indication by distinction is the relational mechanism that may bring design teachers’ expectation that this and not that visual design meaning should apply in communication about any student’s designed object. Such an expectation influences communication between teachers and students about the potential future meaning of students’ designs. Consequently, shared visual design meaning may or may not emerge. The research explanation brings the opportunity for design teachers to make explicit the often implicit way-of-knowing distinctions they use, and to relate these distinctions to the knowing structures thus indicated. The study then offers a new perspective on the old design pedagogical problem of design studio conflict over the meaning of students’ designs. Options for applying this research explanation in design studio interactions between students and teachers are therefore suggested.

The Beat's Interior seeks to answer the simple question: What does the inside of a beat look like? This thesis provides a solution as an audiovisual projection-mapping project inspired by the song, "Pyramids" by Frank Ocean. It explores the relationship between music and architecture. Influenced by scientific theories of cosmic space and the philosophical ideas of space and rhythm, this installation becomes an immersive experience within a constructed form. Original video is mapped onto the skin of the dome using four projectors that are orchestrated through Madmapper. Eight individual parts of a single track are played separately on designated stereos located on the periphery of the room. Changes in the video and music are triggered by GyrOSC data filtered into Max/MSP/Jitter.

Abstract (sommario):

During the shift from the rule of Joseph Stalin to that of Nikita Khrushchev, people in the Soviet Union witnessed dramatic political, economic, and social changes, evident even in such private aspects of life as residential home interiors. The major architectural style of Stalin's era, known as Stalin's Empire Style, was characterized by grandeur and rich embellishments. The buildings' interiors were similarly grandiose and ornate. By endorsing this kind of design, Stalin attempted to position himself as an heir of classical traditions, to encourage respect for his regime, and to signal his power. When Nikita Khrushchev became the country's leader shortly after Stalin's death in 1953, he proclaimed that "excessive decorations" were not only unnecessary, but harmful. As a result, the standardized panel buildings produced at his initiative were defined by straight, plain lines, and were devoid of literally any architectural details that were not considered functional. These changes in Soviet architecture were reflected in interior design and furnishings: the minimalist aesthetic became their defining characteristic. The purpose of this study is to gain, through examination of existing literature, new insight into why a transition to a minimalist aesthetic was happening in the 1950s and 1960s in Soviet urban interior design. To achieve this goal, the present thesis analyzes works by contemporary scholars on the subject and examines statements the Soviet government as well as Soviet architects and interior decoration specialists made regarding the state's views on architecture and interiors during the period of 1950-1960. While research has been published that explores some aspects of this stylistic transition, the present work is unique in that it identifies and focuses on three distinct reasons for the change to minimalism in Soviet urban residential interiors under Khrushchev: the deficit of apartment space, reduction of construction costs, and ideological motives.

CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO
Todo projeto de design que promete mudanças deve, afinal, comunicar-se de uma maneira eficiente com seu público. E todo projeto sustentável deve tornar clara a sua sugestão de transformação da sociedade. Mais que modelar formas e funções, designers criam idéias e propostas, que seus consumidores ou usuários finais percebem ou não. Portanto, esse novo valor simbólico conferido pelo design, aqui neste trabalho chamado de valor sustentável, deve ser visto como uma oportunidade para comunicar uma idéia, uma proposta de mudança social e cultural, que precisa ser percebida, do ponto de vista do consumo. Para verificar como produtos de design sustentável se comunicam com seu público, esta dissertação apresenta uma pesquisa bibliográfica e um trabalho de campo realizado junto a um grupo de trinta consumidores de móveis e objetos decorativos, de três lojas de decoração da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Uma pesquisa qualitativa, composta de uma entrevista em profundidade, e uma pesquisa quantitativa, utilizando a técnica da análise conjunta, foram aplicadas junto aos consumidores, para avaliar a percepção do valor sustentável em peças decorativas e verificar sua eficiência como agente transformador e facilitador de mudanças.
Every design project that promises changes must, after all, establish an efficient communication with their public. And all sustainable projects should make clear their suggestion of transformation of the society. More than modeling forms and functions, designers create ideas and proposals, which their customers or end users perceive or not. Therefore, this new symbolic value given by design, here in this paper called sustainable value, should be seen as an opportunity to communicate an idea, a proposal of cultural and social change, which needs to be perceived, in terms of consumption. To verify how products of sustainable design communicate with their public, this dissertation presents a bibliographical research and a field research carried out among a group of thirty consumers of furniture and decorative objects, from three decoration stores of the city of Rio de Janeiro. A qualitative research, consisting of an in-depth interview, and a quantitative research, using the conjoint analysis technique, were applied to consumers, to assess the perception of the sustainable value in decorative pieces and verify its effectiveness as a transforming agent and changes facilitator.
