ARTS.4150 Design Studio III: Explorations

Id: 041660 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3

Description

Students are encouraged to question the purpose of graphic design in the context of our current world and potential futures. Drawing from historical and contemporary design influences, they will develop a personal methodology to form making. Building upon their fundamental knowledge of visual communication and design systems, they will explore and test current skills and technology (use of online and digital solutions such as AR, motion and web). Using critical theory and research, they will consider their future roles in the industry and speculate and design for fictional or possible scenarios. The course aims to push students' traditional problem-solving, consider the role of authorship of designed content, and develop conceptual, critical approaches to design.
