Product form Drsc.ing. Anita Gerina-Ancane Form says The human being looking on an object or living being, first see the form, then color and other forms of elements associated with it, and only at the very end look into components and details The object form is very important, because that creates the first impression for people The forms and colors compliance Already in ancient times noticed that people influence certain forms Form like color gives an emotional effect on the people Simple geometric forms are perceived more quickly Many nations are similar in form perception Form the same as a color perception depends heavily on associative memory and can be subjective Kristaps Pugačs, RMCX0 snail to scotch holder Square A special case of a rectangle is a square - a rectangle with equal angles and equal sides It is static when it stands on its side, and dynamic, when stands on the edge It is found naturally in many minerals It is perceived as standing firmly on the ground, strong, heavy, self-assured Four different combination of elements and the balance  Four elements, the four seasons Equality, simplicity, directness, truth, justice, wisdom, honor Many games are based on a square - chess, checkers, 15 games with ten trillion to combinations of stones... etc.. 28 square consists of brick surface  Cup Socket Grill Floppy disk Stool Rectangular A rectangle all angles is equal to the 90 °. So the edge pairs are equal and parallel. A rectangle is a special case of parallelogram where all angles are straight. Rectangle in nature is a rare found Rectangle is created unnaturally Houses, furniture, paper, boxes, paper packages - all of these forms are created by the human mind  The most rational, stable and reliable figure The man is using a rectangle to adapt the place by himself - a house, a room, a table, bed, etc.  Calculator Mobile phone Charger Television Triangular A triangle is a triangle or plane part bounded by three straight lines, which intersect each to each. Thus, a triangle is a polygon with three sides Tells of a movement, dynamics and sharp corners shows aggression Triangle his strength exudes from every corner  Equilateral triangle - manhood, the sun, the deity fire, life, heart, hill, harmony, crown An inverted Triangle - femininity, the moon, water, fertility, rain, divine grace Its characteristic structure can be found naturally in many minerals and herbal complex structures Today, many construction are based on a triangular structure and modules  Today, many construction are based on a triangular structure and modules Light Clock Aparatus Music triangle Waybill Dumbbell Traffic conus Steam iron Circle Circle is the figure that is first apparent law such that: all of the points are the same distance from the center. Its the surrounding leaves uncertain dreamer impression - not standing firmly on the ground The sun, the moon, infinity, eternity, perfection  The circle is essentially unstable and dynamic: all rotational movement and to search for eternal movement follows out of the circle The circle is easily found in nature One of the oldest symbols is the disc made from two equal and opposite dynamic parts The circle is not always accurate Sphere is always in the correct position, regardless of location  Cylinder CD Ventilation shaft Thermometer Wheel i-robot Dumbbell  Grill Dustbin 5G reuter  Helm Ball Dumbbell Circle in Latvian mythology Sun (the Moon), harmony, integrity, completeness, security symbol, Jāņu Cheese (cottage cheese with caraway seeds), a heavenly sphere As well as all the events in a circle - around the block pulling round the village, chaff, singing, dancing in a circle, etc.. The circle marks the inner and outer world of ideas containment, light and darkness or good and evil forces fight and good protection. The circle as a symbol of the sun and light associated with warmth, psychological orientation in space. Oval Ellipse can be obtained as the projection of another circle in the plane as well as slicing a cone with a plane and the cylinder with the plane. Elliptical special case of a circle Oval shape is a gentle Gives the impression that it brings peace, phlegm, is liberating and informal Ellipse - the cosmic egg, descent and ascent, involution and evolution Sloping ellipse means the dynamics and pressures  Rackett Flash memory Bath Calculator Kettle Thermometer Coffe machine Juiser Pentagram form A regular pentagon, which all sides are extended so until they intersect, forming five equal equilateral triangles Eternity, perfection, world, health, luck Knife Box Ventilator Car casting disk Regular hexagon A polygon with six sides. Hexagonal angles sum is 720 °. It has 9 diagonals. Each regular hexagon angle is 120 ° high An abundance of beauty, harmony, freedom, marriage Screw nut Screwdriver Screw Roof elements Box Line shape Certain effects of the line shapes Baseline types - straight, bandy, broken, etc. There is a perception that the vertical and horizontal lines are associated with peace, community and solidarity, but curved - with sophistication and disengagement If frequency of the horizontal and vertical lines and contrasting colors, then they cause unpleasant impression A zigzag line of creates rapid change in the impression of power concentration, rapid energy release Hurdle Fence Stairs Ear-rings barrel-shaped key Ventilation shaft Grating Switch  Screw Hook Brake Carabine Tap  Two form combination Headset Lamp Watch Bicycle  Practical task.

The shape would allow more visible area for the signal, thereby making the traffic lights easier for motorists to read. Designers: Kyung Ok Jeon, Sim Hye Yoon, Park So Yeon & Lim Ju Hee Designers: Han Like, Liu Peng, Ren Mingjun & Wei Chengjie Designer: Chang-Chi Shih Designers: Gisung Han, Hwanju Jeon & Jaemin Lee Designer: Kisung Lee Designer: Art Lebedev Studio  A Newfangled Traffic Light Built for People and Robots Arinin's concepts combine information that you would typically find on two or more signs into one, intuitive signal. Each sign is shaped like the intersection in which it appears; a four-way junction gets a cross- shaped (read: four-way) sign. If traffic laws say you can turn right but can’t go straight, the sign will show a green arrow curving right, with a glaring block of red in the bar pointing upwards. It practically gestures at what to do. Designer : Matheus Pinto Designer: Thanva Tivawong Pedestrians are often faced with danger when trying to cross the street in busy urban areas, so devised a new type of solar-powered Designer Hojoon Lim traffic symbol that would keep pedestrians and cars out of each other’s way. The system consists of four signals at each intersection in the shape of a square. Whichever side has to wait for the moment is greeted with a thin laser signal blocking the way, giving a harmless visual cue that is perhaps a little harder to ignore than the standard red light. The Marshalite was invented by Designer Charles Marshall Charles Marshall in 1936 and employed a mechanical pointer to indicate what the cars should be doing at any given time. Thanks to the sweeping hand that moved at a predictable speed across the colored segments, motorists knew exactly how long remained until the signal changed. The Marshalite was used in Australia until the 1970s, but its design influence can still be felt today. http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=whnB6ueKIj0 Traffic signs What is the Mazda KODO design philosophy? Mazda KODO design incorporates energetic and graceful elements to replicate a sense of flow. Inspirations used to develop the beauty of motion include natural elements, such as wind and water, as well as animal movement and athletic displays https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb-24LW56J4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N5ibgD8Z1A  Research task – Product Form Choose one product; Research product form and color from its history till nowadays; Describe main materials that are used and their color; Draw 3 sketches of future product form; Make Power Point presentation and upload it in ORTUS.
