''Rainbow Designer'' : for global and multicultural design

Abstract

O que procuram os designers alcançar? Procuram relacionar-se com a realidade, produzindo registos visuais de emoções e pensamentos, ou projectando e produzindo objectos que são funcionais, adaptando as tecnologias às necessidades do quotidiano. Isto exige que o designer seja um atento observador do seu meio-ambiente físico e possua uma sensibilidade apurada para as culturas, o que lhe permitirá desconstruir as formas latentes da realidade e os simbolismos culturais de maneira a poder compreender a ordem que lhes está subjacente e os princípios da sua composição e unidade. Só então poderá reproduzir a natureza e responder a chamamentos culturais. Neste processo de compreensão da realidade circundante da natureza e das culturas, o designer desloca-se sempre, em regra sem disso ter consciência, entre dois processos: busca de identidade e auto-identificação.

What do the designers tend to achieve? To relate themselves to the reality by producing visual registers of emotions and thoughts, or by projecting and producing objects that are functional, adapting technologies to daily needs. That requires that a designer be a keen observer of his physical surroundings and have a fine sensibility to cultures, enabling him to disassemble the latent forms of the reality and cultural symbolisms in order to perceive the order underlying them and the principles of their composition and unity. Only then could he reproduce the nature and respond to cultural callings. In this process of understanding the surrounding reality of nature and cultures, a designer always moves, generally without being aware of it, between two processes: identity search and self-identification.
