Design Applications (Previously Product Design)
Design Your Future: Innovate, Create, and Elevate!
In this immersive course, students will delve into the practical applications of design concepts across various fields, including product, apparel, architecture, and transportation design. Through a blend of analog techniques and digital software, students will engage in real-world design challenges, fostering creativity and innovation.
The course is structured around two key projects: a design package for a competitive design challenge and a tailored design package for a local industry, with guidance from industry expert Lynn Eckart. Students will explore competition opportunities, selecting one that aligns with their interests and skills.
Each design package will encompass the following components:
- Concept Statement: Articulating the core idea and vision behind the design.
- Design Statement: Detailing the design process, influences, and objectives.
- Orthographic, Isometric, and Human Scale Perspective Drawings: Creating comprehensive visual representations of the design from multiple viewpoints.
- Annotated Full-Color Drawings: Providing detailed illustrations with explanatory notes to enhance understanding.
By the end of the course, students will have developed a robust portfolio showcasing their ability to conceptualize, design, and communicate ideas effectively. This course is ideal for aspiring designers looking to make impactful connections in the industry while honing their skills in a collaborative environment.
