abstract
Background As the worldwide attention the urgency of the environmental pollution and depletion of natural wasted began receiving attention for research on how to reduce the environmental pollution caused by the waste and recycling methods. This study is consistent with a study on the flow of these contemporary one step higher level of upcycling designs into functional, aesthetic from simple recycling. Through a case study on the characteristics of the materials and techniques that appear in the upcycling product design, we propose a theoretical data and the problem needed to develop products with high added value and a firm grasp on upcycling product design. Methods Research on the upcycling Theoretical analysis and characterization of materials and techniques that appear in the upcycling products designs were collecting relevant literature and several previous studies and books, products, case studies since 2005 can be seen in upcycling products design site in. It was discussed mainly the product of foreign designers. Result Results First, simply growing interest in upcycling design to create new value to the product by adding design elements for reinvestment and abandoned waste to not concepts environment of the down cycle that only recycling or reuse value with the material. Second, the material used in the product design upcycling in general in paper, textile, leather, vinyl, Thailand Chapter, wood, glass, metal, etc. has been widely used, the area of materials recycling which has been gradually expanded. Third, the design techniques used in the product has been used up cycling a lot of patchwork, plating, weaving, knitting and Black Chevron, mainly handicraft techniques such as collage elements have a strong technique. Fourth, the combination of different materials with durable recycled through the upcycling product design case study and weaving, knitting, crochet, patchwork, plating was a use scarcity and originality of handicraft techniques that require sophisticated technology stand out, such as can do. Conclusion Upcycling the utilization of resources through a study of the product design to enhance the development of new material and not just lowering costs and production of traditional craft techniques. By studying the unique techniques upcycling the design of high value-added industries can develop.
