中英文工业设计中3R原则的运用与影响

The impact of 3r principles to industrial design

Abstract: While industrial design creates modem life and living surroundings for people, it also accelerates the exhaustion of the natural resources and the energy resources. Besides, it has done harm to the ecological balance, and threatened the existence and the sustainable development of human beings. Confront with this situation, the strategy of sustainable development, proposed in 1990s, is accepted by many people. Recycling economy and its key point, “3r” principle, were born for this situation and become important principle in all kinds of economic activities and in the area of design and manufacture. By decoding the connotation of “3r”principle, the article analyzes the influence and the guidance over industrial design of “3r” principle. Furthermore, the article tries to discuss the conception of redesign, which is the extension of “3r” principle in the area of industrial design.

Key words: 3R principle; industrial design; recycling economy; redesign

I Introduction

Industrial design as a cross-cutting technology and the arts disciplines, it is closely related to the economy and to maintain its development and progress of society. It can be summarized: First. It services for industrial mass production, making industrial products enhance the value and valued-added. Second, it leads the fashion, to effectively stimulate consumption, so that consumers now only use the product at the same time, but also enjoy the new technology and material, Third, it puts technology to link up with the market, making products enhance competitiveness; Last but now least, it can bring the innovation into the enterprise. Therefore, the economic development needs industrial design which has become indispensable to the country’s economic construction.

However, along with the traditional industrial design creating high-quality modern lifestyle and living environment and promoting economic development, it also speeds up the consumption of resources and energy. What’s more, it does harm to the ecological balance of the Earth and brings about a serious of great damage to human survival and sustainable development. Especially the excessive commercialization of industrial design, utilitarian and excessive pursuit of profit, the implementation of “merchandise has plans to abolish the system”without taking into account production, use, process waste, such as the environment, the impact of resources. It can be said that people are in inappropriate and excessive consumption patterns of life. The industrial design objectively becomes essential medium to encourage people to uncontrolled consume, which is countered to the essence of industrial design------creating a science and healthy way of life.

Facing the threat of human survival and sustainable development, in the 20th century, people began to question the sustainable development of humanity, to carry out a profound reflection on sustainable development and to put forward a suitable model of circular economy. The principle of circular is “3R” (ie Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) which is of great significance to the implementation and promotion of socio-economic stability, sustainable development. Against this background, the concept of sustainable development into rapid economic development is inextricably linked to the design, based on this ongoing exploration and practice. “3R”principle intended to sort out this article on various aspects of industrial design and the guiding, and attempts to explore the “3R”principle of industrial design at the extension.

Economy is engaged in production, consumption and reproduction activities, which is to meet human material needs of their own material. Recycling economy is considered following the
