Course Detail: PDFN-121 - FOUNDATIONS - 3D DESIGN: MATERIAL AND METHODS

  

This course examines the language, role and function of 3D design in art and culture. Students explore the language of 3D design in a survey of art and design contexts such as fashion, product design, architecture, contemporary art and the natural world. Students will create a visual archive of 3D visual form that demonstrates an understanding of a basic visual grammar (such as mass, volume, plane, edge, hard, soft, transparency, opacity, etc.). The course takes students through the process of research, design, material investigation, and fabrication. Research, material experimentation, and craftsmanship will be emphasized.
