Abstract

This research describes how the application of the metaphoric concept in stool design with a narrative approach method. The study was based on the results of the work of UNIKOM students in the furniture class in 2016. The research took place for 4 months. Starting from the pre-elementary design stage to the prototype design. The problem of this research is how the work stages of the students using the narrative approach method to create a stool through the concept of metaphor and what factors can create the form according to the narration. This research used participatory method. Some of the student’s work became the object of research. Stages in the design process were narrative creation that serves as the basic idea of design, elaboration of narration, translation of narrative elements in stool design with metaphoric forms, working drawings, and prototype designs, followed by feedback from users. The research result shows that with the concept of metaphor, students can create unexpected forms. Stages in the design process become more focused on form problems. Narrative element factors can be the determinants of the creation of forms such as character figures, timing, story content, and supporting properties. The concept of metaphor is a tool in the process of creation that translates narratives into the idea of stool design forms. The created form is an original idea of students, and students can explore with imagination through narrative and metaphorical concept.
