Recommendations (5)
Extend the research beyond metallic materials to other common material families—such as ceramics, wood, and stone—as well as to new materials that do not fit easily within traditional taxonomies.

- Time Horizon:
- Long
- Evidence Strength:
- Exploratory
- Feasibility:
- Medium
Expand the study population to include broader age ranges and greater geographic, social, economic, and educational diversity in order to identify variations in material perception across different groups.
- Scope:
- Macro
- Time Horizon:
- Long
- Evidence Strength:
- Indicative
- Feasibility:
- Medium
Create a system that maintains information on materials permanently up to date, ideally through association with an online materioteca as part of a strategy for continuous data renewal and broader reach.
- Scope:
- Macro
- Time Horizon:
- Long
- Evidence Strength:
- Indicative
- Feasibility:
- Medium
Develop online materiotecas so they not only provide material information but also gather and cross-reference concepts and values associated with materials, together with variables such as age, gender, profession, country/market, and purchasing power.
- Scope:
- Macro
- Time Horizon:
- Long
- Evidence Strength:
- Exploratory
- Feasibility:
- Medium
Collect and compare information from other countries in order to understand how deeper knowledge of materials influences design education and project implementation in different contexts for students and young professionals.
