IAED 3103 - Furniture Design

The goal is to equip students with the ability to design furniture using artificial intelligence, as well as to create original seating element prototypes based on ergonomic and aesthetic considerations. Simultaneously, it aims to develop skills in producing scaled models using contemporary modeling methods such as 3D printing, and in presenting these models using computer-aided design techniques.

The goal is to equip students with the ability to design furniture using artificial intelligence, as well as to create original seating element prototypes based on ergonomic and aesthetic considerations. Simultaneously, it aims to develop skills in producing scaled models using contemporary modeling methods such as 3D printing, and in presenting these models using computer-aided design techniques.

In this course, students create prompts for AI image generators using word cloud frameworks. These prompts are then optimized to shape the seating element design. Once the design is mature, 3D modeling is used to address ergonomic, aesthetic, or structural issues. Finally, the design is produced to scale using 3D printing or manual methods, and presentation visuals are prepared.

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI):Students are permitted to use artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT, Grammarly, etc.) for grammar correction and academic writing improvement throughout their work. However, AI-generated original content (e.g., analysis, paragraph writing, conceptual description, etc.) must not exceed 20% of the submitted material.In any case where AI tools are used, students are required to include a clear declaration within the assignment/report/submission. This declaration must include the name of the AI tool/model used, the specific purpose, and a brief explanation of how it contributed to the work.Example declaration:"I used ChatGPT-4 for proofreading and restructuring the introductory paragraph."Failure to declare the use of AI tools when applied will be treated as a violation of academic integrity and plagiarism policies and may result in disciplinary action.
