碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 應用藝術研究所 === 96 === Experiencing and representing unrecognized material is the ability which designers should be provided within a design process. Discussing interesting points and any relationships between the material, technique and product can develop designers’ personal taste and style when they design. For me, material exploration is the most important process in design process. This study shows the exploring process of material making to know more about the relationship between material and design. Looking at different combinations of paper, textile and plant texture through handmade prototypes will be the focus in this project. With detailed recording, there will be some critics of every work and design. Moreover, the influence of my thinking and a logical rule of this project will be defined after this exploring process. A set of material collection with 36 materials has been created in this project. They present the combination of plant texture transformation, paper and textile techniques. Thereafter, this study demonstrates a product design process in order to achieve the application of this material collection. Nevertheless, this project develops a connection with raw material exploration and design process. It also provides a new and complete process for designers.
