Abstract :This study presents an ongoing research project aimed at contributing to the sustainability of local crafts through design. By approaching the sustainability of craft production knowledge between the designer and the craftsman from a unique perspective, the study generates knowledge applicable in industrial production workshops, particularly in cases where implicit knowledge cannot be easily transferred. Also, the research seeks answers to questions regarding the transfer of the knowledge of ironworking, which is the last active guild in Safranbolu, to future generations through designs or areas where designs can contribute. The study was carried out as a scientific research project in cooperation with Karabuk University and Safranbolu ironmasters. The research process commenced with background research on Safranbolu ironworks and continued with the determination of the study area with examples of ironwork. In the application step, three ironwork samples determined after the craftsman interviews were modelled using a three-dimensional modelling program. These are examples of door knocker, door ring, door latch. The models were digitally archived.
