Description

In this course, students are introduced to thinking processes whereby theoretical and philosophical understandings are applied to support the creative process. These understandings within the design process are used to create complexity and to reinforce design outcomes. Further, students are involved in critical analysis of solutions derived in order to develop the capacity to evaluate different design approaches. Questions of intent, content and application are focused toward the development of the individual's visual language.
