**Zoom Live-Interview** Design Research in Turkey and Beyond

 

22. June 2020, Monday, 17.00-17.30 UTC/GMT+2

The term ‘design research’ has first appeared in Turkey around late 60s and 70s with the scientification of design disciplines such as architecture. Later in the 80s, the term started to spread to other design disciplines e.g. urban design, interior design. And in the mid 90s, the term ‘industrial design research’ entered into the Turkish design academia with major national conferences. Since then, the field has made great progress in Turkey, thanks to many national design educators, researchers and professionals.

In this live interview, Dr. Aysun Aytac, Competence Centre Design & Management Lucerne School of Art and Design, will talk with Prof. Dr. Özlem Er to learn about the current state and the future challenges of design research in Turkey, its existing and potential contributions to the shared body of knowledge in design theory and practice globally.

The talk will allow students, researchers and practitioners unique insights into the developments of design in Turkey.
