Abstract
|
|
|
|
| Within product design, attention has grown towards experiential material characterization, as a supplement to technical material characterization. With regard to the essential translation of subjective experiences of consumers into meaningful material data, this research project investigated the need for a standardized physical material demonstrator form that triggers consumers in holistic multimodal interactions, while minimizing the interference with product (function) and context associations. A stepwise and mixed method methodology was employed, consisting of six qualitative and quantitative studies with form experts, designers, and consumers in order to create and verify potential forms. Conclusively, the proposed demonstrator form was found more appropriate for experiential material characterization (of plastic materials, including recycled and bioplastics), than standard flat plates that are used in most experiments. |
