0.50 Credit(s)
Studio
Students develop a visual language capable of shaping and expressing clear and creative ideas in three dimensional forms. Using a variety of materials including analogue and digital technologies the course introduces students to the conceptual elements, organizing principles and creative processes used in the development of form. Students also examine the meanings and association of forms, along with the underlying structural principles affecting their creation. Also central to the course is how concept, idea, form, material and process are all inter-related. Through questioning and a developing awareness of contemporary design practice, students develop the
confidence to produce meaningful forms in three dimensions.
