Jellyfish

I always find the jellyfish very attractive and interesting. However, as everyone, i always avoid encountering them at the sea. Appearently, Emily Carr find a better way to interact them for human.

When i see the process, i realized that it needs more practice only than  design. That is always something that i am curious about industrial design. Desinging also its sytsem, is it enough to know basic things. Appreantly, Emily Carr uses some electronical information for designing these Jellyfishes. It does not seem that much complicated for this design. But what about the other complex stuff? Should we need to take maybe engineering background ? Or just we need some engineers who help us?

magazine example

As we all know, we're going to do a magazine design in the second semester. That's why i decided to look at some examples of it. I found one that i really like ; filter. I'm not so sure about its content however, i like its simple design that gives to the reader too much space- which kind of gives the sense of relief for me. I would really enjoy the looking at a magazine like that. Also the choose of images too way interesting. In the first photo, we're seeing a destorted woman face with a diamond neckless- which gives me lots of idea about the content of the magazine. With this way,  according to me, designer achieve to make a direct connectionto the  content without writing too much thing to the cover. It is a really powerful way to express your ideas.

Logo looks so simple.

Minimalist Design

It is not hard to understand why all we trying to keep the designs that we do simple after seeing these photos.

  

Architecture for Dogs

I always find the idea that designing something for the pets creepy. For me that is against their nature to try to involved that human made stuff. If you ever had a cat or dog, you would recognize that even when you take a toy for them they don't care about, they continue to nibble your furniture. However, when i come across with those designs i could not stop myself looking to them. What can i say, they are so cute. Also, according to the site that i come across the people who design these furniture are like a community, and all of these stuff that was designed have an aim like increasing the connection between the dog and its owner.

It was written that, because of the short legs of this species, its designer and at the same time owner of the dog for strengthen their relationship through the increasing the eye contact made this sofa/chair.

The using of the mirror means something in here. Toy poddle is the only strain that can realize its reflection in meaningful sense behind the whole dog species.

These are my favorite twosome, i really like the design and the dog's strange looks. I'm sure that it will take seconds for this guy to ruin its owners creation.

Those Bikes will Save the World

Personally, i do not like using cars. However, in a city like İstanbul it is like an obligation. My biggest dream is recently ; moving a place that resolve my transportation problems with bikes and by walking.

In Africa, some Dutch designers who think like me, by taking in the consideration of the raw materials of the region and their benefits they wanted to design a vehicle for the native population. For that they have used a sustainable material - bamboo which makes the also bikes stylish and provides economical benefits to the local community.

What can i say, i don't know these bikes whether make a good profit or solution for the locals' or not, in any case i loved them!

Leanie Van der Vyver - Scary Beautful

http://vimeo.com/51286982

When i first see these designed shoes, i got really surprised. As a women even wearing high heels is something really hard for me. I've never achieved a proper walk when i am wearing high heels. And when i saw these pairs which was designed by Leanie Van der Vyver, i loved that how she brought an completely another approach to the high heels, she made them even more hard to wear, maybe trying to saying that how hard to be a women.

If you want to walk with these shoes, you should bend your knees. Ooouf! Must be painful.

However, i should say that as visually they are attractive. Thinking the whole process reverse is something which all people do for the creatin. And for me personelly, never dreamed of high heels in that reverse sense. Also, i really like the model's expression in this photo, she is like trying to say something. Photos, situation, shoes for me all of these components tell something about being a woman.

Some architectural stuff!

Before i started to Sabancı, i was dying to study architecture, actually i still admire architectural stuff. I still have passion for the well designed houses. Also i am a person who really loves spend time in home. And when i am surfing on the internet, i encounter this plain and clear desgined house.

I really enjoyed the simple and basic structure of it, at the first glance it gives you relief. For me it is really conveniet place for living.

Also, even in a place like that looks too much structural and basic with this detail of combination of pool and garden gives people a space for relaxing. I liked the useing of little rock in the garden by the way.

Lighting of the house is another main component for me, i really enjoyed that houses' big windows and bright rooms. My mornings woulf be full of joy, if i wake up in a place like that. Actually, i should be honest, this place's interior design like color of the walls or the choice of furniture reminds me my room.

homework 2

it is like a composition of time machine and shower.

flood, rain all over here. even we don't recognize that maybe we'll be exposed to these kind of situations because of the global warming etc.

good solution for preserving your meal from the external influences.

sense of the second skin.

as i mentioned before. I have never understand why people always insistin about using umbreallas, instead finding good solutions. For me umbrellas also, hard to carry and look ridicilious also, they are not the best solution for the rain, they do not protect you a hundred percent. I know it sounds strange but, i really hate the world when my new shoes ruins because of the rain and when my hair start to rise because of the weather. That's why, when i saw these photos i thought these are could be kind of clues for the thing that i wanted to create.

my product:

it is like a suit that would be your best friends, in the rainy and floody day. it will wrap you like a  plastic bag wraps its sandwich in it, and even in the conditions like flood or even in the worse situations you are not gonna think about how you are gonna protect yourself from the wetness. also, the process is so easy you are gonna enter a box -picture 1- and it will takes 5 minutes to wrap all your body with a suit that protects every inches of you. also our material is somthing completely natural, you won't even feel that its existence. it is gonna be your like second skin. you will feel like water is part of your nature.

and that is our logo.



holiday homework

this is the company that travels you through the imaginary worlds like far behind the stars, or to the other lands. in the second image there is obvious that the road implies the travel and the directions in it shows where we are going etc, and in the first (left) image, after a path you are finding a magic-likstuff, and the important thing in the 3rd ( down) photo , when i see the reindeers they remembers me the christmas and noel and the journey that the Santa Claus did through the clouds for getting the north pole. and after that i have decided it would be a magical journey, or it would take people to a magic world land. yeah, with my company we are offering you to going the places have you've ever seen, only imagine.


this is the logo;

for the logo week

I was searching on the internet for our first steps of corporate identity assignment and i found some interesting stuff.


 I really like the logo but again for me, process is much more interesting.

Look! Where the inspiration come from. 

corporate identitiy

müptela- cigar/ tobacco
tutkal- magazin
güzergah- tur
dergah- spa

some inspiration

I really like the both creation process and the final work!





That's nice idea to merge these 2 letter together. Even though it looks like a little bir logo of Wolkswagen.







That remind me the reliefs that we did for Erdağ Aksel last year. I really like the idea of giving 3D sense. I realy appreciate it.

typeface for the hipsters?!?

that's like plague. something serious right now. after the clothes, hair and all the ridicilious stuff now they're on the typography area. but i have to admit that it is not so bad. but i am wondering when people start to look and laugh at their interesting things that they've done for becoming HIPSTER?!?

I've always thoght about why don't people try to find better options instead of umbrellas. When you are cold and getting wet really hard to control  these things. Also, when i see someone who carries an umbrealla above his head it always make me laugh -even myself-. Be honest, it is ridiciluos to see someone who carries somehing like roof above his/her body. That's why, for me next generations will really make fun with us because of that primitive solution that we find for the rain. However, when i see these designed umbrellas, i feel like i should say something about,




who carries an umbrella in sunny day?




it may changes your mood



at least doing some stuff.
