Abstract:

Defined as the electronic demonstration of data on a screen, the digital concept has become a ubiquitous notion in the entire world and all aspects of life particularly after the onset of the 2000s. Video, camera, computer, mobile phone, television, watch, medical devices, laser gauge devices, electronic kitchen utensils, air conditioners and a myriad of products that develop and operate via digital technology have become widespread in daily life. Digital technology, in its shorter definition, refers to the type of technology that facilitates the generation of electronic screen equipment, gadgets and machines in which numerical data are converted into useful, comprehensible information in order to simplify the life of users. In addition to offering fast, practical and widespread applications once used, digital technology products also cater to novel areas of usage each new day thanks to developing technology. One of these areas of usage is interior architecture. Interior architecture designs have been performed on digital media as of the second half of the 1990s and with the advent of the 2000s, novel digital technology processes such as 3-Dimensional works became popular to save time and develop innovative designs. Via using digital presentation in multidimensional, visual, or artificial media, the design manages to exist even before physical production while the design process is also moulded by representation. In the design process, problems can be resolved quickly allowing reductions in electricity and cash resources possible. Moreover, it is also viable to avoid potential mistakes. Currently, some of the common digital technology uses in interior architecture are 2 and 3-Dimensional drawing and modelling programs on a computer, liquid theories, parametric design, computer coded production programs, simulation programs, artificial intelligence products, virtual reality (VR) and 3-Dimensional printer systems. Within the interior architecture itself, there are numerous design products generated via digital technology are used. On the other hand, to improve user comfort in spaces, applications are formed by utilizing digital technology and there is a gradually increasing demand for such applications. In this study, the uses and effects of digital technology particularly in the interior architecture will be analysed. The aim of this study is to provide an important written resource for futuristic approaches to interior architecture.
