In theoretical classes the practical output of furniture production is ignored and it lacks of an important input from production. This situation is compensated by applied classes in wood workshops which are established with a limited variety of production techniques. As most of the industrial products furniture is made out of many components and materials. These are produced in industrial establishments by installation of required production techniques. Instead of producing a marketable product, in interior design courses the aim is to have an experience of furniture production due to that they do not have all possible production techniques installed in workshops. In this paper, a joint project between academia, which is more close to design and industry, which is more close to production is discussed with a focus on benefits of this collaboration for both sides. Paper comprises an evaluation of a one term experience of interior design students in collaboration with laminated wood furniture factory.

İç mimarlık kullanıcının konfor ve gereksinimlerini karşılayarak iç mekâna ait kararların alınmasıyla sürdürülebilir tasarım felsefesinin toplumsal/sosyal ayağını ve mekânları yeniden kullanıma açabilen bir yapıda olmasıyla da çevresel ayağını oluşturmada önemli bir konumda yer almaktadır. Bu çalışma sürdürülebilir tasarımın sosyal ayağına vurgu getirerek otel iç mekânının sürdürülebilir kriterler dikkate alınarak tasarlandığında tasarımın kullanıcılara nasıl yansıdığını keşfetmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda LEED Gold sertifikası almış iki otelin iç mekân tasarımını etkileyen kriterler incelenmiş ve bu kriterlerin kullanıcılara nasıl yansıdığını ortaya koymak için nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması ve betimsel analiz tekniği kullanılmıştır. Çalışma iki farklı ülkede yer alan LEED Gold Sertifikası almış ve tasarım ekibi içerisinde iç mimar bulunduran iki otel ve bu otellerle ilgili tripadvisor.com sitesinde yer alan ilk 150 kullanıcı yorumu ile sınırlandırılmıştır. Araştırmada iki otel hakkında yapılan toplamda 350 yorumun sözel ve görsel içeriği analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda özetle otel iç mekân tasarımında sürdürülebilir tasarım kararlarının bütüncül bir bakış açısıyla uygulanması mekânı deneyimleyen kullanıcılar arasında çevresel farkındalığın yaratılmasında etkili bir araç olmaktadır. Bu çalışmadan elde edile diğer sonuçlar otel işletmecilerine, iç mimarlara ve araştırmacılara kullanım sonrası değerlendirme için ampirik (deneyimsel) kanıtlar sunabilir.
ABSTRACT
Sustainable design is triplle bottom line design approach that expresses the whole of the guiding methods that are ecologically environmentally-responsible, economically profitable and socially consider user needs and comfort. Interior architecture/design takes an important position in forming the social line of sustainable design philosophy by taking the decisions of the interior by meeting the comfort and needs of the user and also its environmental line with structure that makes the spaces reusable. This study emphasizes the social line of sustainable design and aims to discover how it is reflected to the users when the hotel is designed by considering the sustainable criteria in the interior design. For this purpose, criterias affecting interiors of two hotels that have received LEED Gold certification were examined. For research methodology were used multi case study and qualitative descriptive method. Research limitations are two hotels that have worked interior designers within the design team that have received Leed Gold certification in two different countries, and the first 150 user comments about these hotels in Tripadvisor.com. In the study the visual and verbal content of 350 comments made about these two hotels, were analyzed. As a result of the study, in summary, the implementation of sustainable design decisions in the hotel interior design with holistic perspective is to effective in promoting environmental awareness among the users who experience the space. Other results from this study can provide empirical evidence for post-use evaluation to hoteliers, interior designers and researchers.
