材料是人类赖以生存和发展的物质基础,是工业设计中实体形成的主要因素。现代材料的发展速度是迅速的,材料的利用,离不开生产工艺。设计师要做的,并不只是认识材料,关键的是,设计师要一直与材料进行沟通,适时的开发各种材料作用的场合,以及检验材料在这个场合中是否被发掘出了最大的潜质。本文结合当代环境问题,阐述了工业设计中运用、改造、找到新的用途和加工方法来转换材料的事例,并得出结论,改变材料的特性或行为使它变得更有用,这才是材料科学的核心。 Material is the material basis for the survival and development of mankind, and is the main factor for the formation of the entity in industrial design. The development of modern materials is rapid, the use of materials, can not be separated from the production process. What designers need to do is not just to know the material. The key is that designers should always communicate with the material, develop the role of various materials in a timely manner, and test whether the material has been excavated to the greatest potential in this occasion . Combining contemporary environmental issues, this paper expounds the case of using materials in industrial design to transform, find new uses and processing methods to convert materials and concludes that it is more useful to change the properties or behavior of materials to make it more useful. This is the material The core of science.
