Abstract:
Industrial design has become a well-known and important discipline today. Industrial design is a truly interdisciplinary field, encompassing engineering, social sciences, economics and basic sciences. Overtime, the dynamics that affect the design discipline have become more oriented towards user and product. As the technology and the market develop, it has become ever increasingly difficult to impress the user with the designed product. It is necessary to give correct signals to the user with the designed product in order to attract their attention. It is a difficult but important step to bring the user and designer together at the same point. Accordingly this study thrives to explore whether semiotics have been integrated into the industrial design profession and to what extent. To this end, a survey with professional industrial designers in Izmir has been conducted to understand their use of semiotics in their practice. Keywords: Semiotics/Semiology, Industrial Design, Product Design, Education, Industrial Design Proffesion
