3.00 Credits
Utilizing the elements and principles of design, and working in various black-and-white and color media, students in this course develop an understanding of the various organizational possibilities available in designing for the flat surface. Along with learning and applying professional presentation skills and craftsmanship, the development of ideas, problem-solving skills and understanding design concepts are the focus of this course.
-
3.00 Credits
Through study, direct analysis, reading, demonstrations, exercises and formal assignments students in this course develop a practical understanding of color properties and relationships. Topics include color systems, fundamental vocabulary for analyzing and identifying color and color phenomena. The use of color by various artists and designers, and the work of theorists are examined. The ability to utilize color in a variety of fields, professional presentation skills and craftsmanship are emphasized. Prerequisite: DSGN 100.
-
3.00 Credits
Through the execution of a broad range of architectural and sculptural projects, using a variety of media and techniques, students in this course study the elements and principles as they apply to designing in three dimensions: height, width and depth. Using critique as a tool to analyze three dimensional objects and their related spaces, students learn how to manipulate and construct form and space. Prerequisite: DSGN 100.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates the shaping and designing of time-based artwork through a variety of media: video, sound and interactive/change-driven multimedia. Students build on concepts explored in previous design courses by transposing fundamental design principles to the design and organization of material over time. The conceptual development of working in time-based media is achieved through exposure to groundbreaking team-based artworks as well as fundamental introductions to appropriate technologies. Prerequisites: CMPA 100 or CMPA 110, DSGN 100, and DSGN 101.
-
3.00 Credits
The focus is on advancing students' visual awareness through a design process that includes extensive independent visual research and produces fully articulated works. Students develop high levels of confidence and overall competency in controlling color in design. Regular exchanges of feedback with other students in the class and frequent in-progress critiques promote students' proficiency in the use of visual language and terminology and the development of a refined color sensibility. Prerequisites: DSGN 100, DSGN 101.
-
3.00 Credits
A series of carefully sequenced lectures and studio exercises guides the transformation of basic design into elementary architectural design. Emphasis is on the comprehension of space and its delineators as abstract entities and on the theoretical development of design concepts. The exercises progress from dealing with a single space and its adjacencies to sequences of spaces with specific functions. Exercises also involve the design analysis of notable works of architecture. Prerequisite: DRAW 115.
-
3.00 Credits
Lectures and studio exercises continue the studies begun in Architectural Fundamentals I with the addition of the physical environment as a design factor. With a continuing emphasis on the visual definition of space and on related design concepts, the exercises become increasingly complex in their consideration of form and space transitions and their relationships. Students are expected to continue to develop abilities to represent ideas in drawings, models and oral presentations. Prerequisite: DSGN 223.
-
3.00 Credits
This studio investigates the dynamics of choreographed movement through sequences of architectural space which impact the visual, haptic, and auditory senses. In addition the perceptual dynamics of configuration, light, view, frame, image, motility, posture, surface, and transparency within architectural space at various scales of investigation are explored. Prerequisite: DSGN 223.
-
3.00 Credits
The topic of this course varies from quarter to quarter. Each course focuses on various issues in design and allows students to purse individual projects related to the subject of the course. Prerequisites: Vary according to topic.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is intended to foster interdisciplinary cooperation in the creation of a series of spectacles that act as a bridge between the visual and performing arts. Students are offered the opportunity to apply their intellectual and physical efforts to projects that result from collaboration with peers and in response to thematic motifs established by the featured events. Prerequisite: DSGN 102.
