FROM DESIGN CONCEPT TO PRODUCTION: USING GENERATIVE DESIGN OUTPUT AS DESIGN INSPIRATION

With the rapid development of information technologies, the ability of Generative Design, which is included in production processes, to produce producible products by working integrated with simulation has started to rethink the future roles of industrial designers. Therefore, this study examines how Generative Design can progress with conventional production processes and how this progress can help designers in the future. The potential of the generatively obtained form-seeking processes, which are discussed in the scope of the study, to produce optimal results is emphasized. For this purpose, a generative design triggered design process was conducted with a firm in the real sector, the outputs were optimized in terms of manufacturability, and the effects of generative design-based inputs on the final product were discussed. Based on the results of the study, suggestions have been developed on how Generative Design can be transformed into producible results that can be a source of innovation.
