This research explores the relationship between creative freedom, intuition and design, with a focus on stimulating innovative design styles and methods. The project uses sheet metal processing as a source of inspiration for chair designs, in which intuition and free thinking lead to new forms.

FORGED BY INTUITION

Research into Creative Freedom, Intuition and Design

This research explores new approaches to the interaction between art, design, emotion and design processes. It focuses on promoting free creativity and intuition during design, resulting in an innovative design style and method.

Methodology: An initial catalog of sheet metal working techniques served as a source of inspiration. This catalog led to diverse chair designs, embodying method applications as well as individual reinterpretations.

Creative Freedom and Intuition: Holding on to preconceived ideas inhibits creative expression. A shift to a dynamic, intuitive approach with freedom of thought opened up more room for creativity during the design process.

Evolving Process: Emphasizing intuition and embracing unlimited thinking created an organic design process. This gave rise to a new design style and method, where tools acted as brushes on canvas.

Integration of Art and Design: "Forged by Intuition" emphasizes the value of art-design integration through sheet metal as a canvas for expression. Chair designs symbolize the fusion of intuition and design, showing an evolution in approach.

New Forms of Expression through Intuitive Design Processes

The project shows that letting go of limitations and embracing creativity results in innovative forms of expression. The chairs serve as tangible manifestations of this approach. They illustrate the power of intuition as a source of inspiration for innovative, meaningful designs.

"Forged by Intuition" highlights the fusion of art, design, emotion and intuition. It shows how allowing free creativity leads to a new design style and method. Breaking down barriers creates space for innovation and personal expression. This project emphasizes the crucial role of intuition as an engine for compelling and groundbreaking designs.
