Course Objectives: | This introductory studio will expose the students to the skills required to undertake design project courses and introduce basic material, design elements, prinsiples to be used in the following design studio courses of the Industrial Design undergraduate program. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Describe basic design principles and elements in visual construction techniques 2. Debates on understanding of line, shape, form and color theories 3. Apply the basics of design process 4. Relate design elements to construct an orderly composition 5. Practice formal experiments working with models and drawings 6. Propose concepts for the development of design projects 7. Evaluate design compositions according to given criteria. |
The course is an introduction to the skills and processes of industrial design; including drawing, sketching and making as an aid to design (including technical drawing), the basics of line and shape, ideation and visualization, use of product drawing and presentation techniques, an introduction to basic model-making practices and equipment, and an introduction to the design process. |
