Description
You will develop an understanding of scale models, drawing conventions and their presentation, in particular working to scale, using notations, dimensions and the use of drawings for 3D computer modelling, digital visualisation, prototyping and presentation. Through a series of lectures and demonstrations you will be informed of the different skills, knowledge and abilities a designer requires in order to create a three dimensional object.
You will work on one project throughout the course and have three sequential assessment tasks covering; research and concepts, design development and final design synthesis and presentation. You will work between the design studio, object design fabrication space and computer lab at different stages in order to realise the project.
