Design afetivo: experimentações tangíveis em luminárias, através da ressignificação de objetos

Abstract

This research proposes the study of tacit experimentations with luminaires, with a focus on reuse and the reuse of discarded objects in scrap yards, understanding that design work is directly related to research, to the panoramic and multidisciplinary; and, in the name of sustainability, needs to seek alternatives to the serious problems that affect the planet. Thus, we seek theoretical basis to understand the dimensions of affective sustainability, eco design and sustainable design; to understand the relation between subjects and objects in modernity and to study the re-signification of contemporary objects in the view of well-known artists. And, finally, focusing on Walker's Propositional Design process, with the methodology of unspoken experimentation, we understand that the application of these concepts in the elaboration of luminaires, through the use of scrap, presents itself as a plausible solution to contemporary environmental problems.
