3.00 Credits
This studio course focuses on human dimension and activity, and the psychological and social implications of space, form, and color. Projects introduce the interior design concepts of anthropometrics, proxemics, universal design, and design psychology. Students integrate the design vocabulary and explorations from DE 205 with these new concepts in the development of space. Open to non-majors with permission. Prerequisite: DE 205
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to shop safety, fabrication methods, and equipment in a context of design exploration. Processes will focus on wood, with an introduction to a range of materials such as plastic, textiles, glass, masonry, and metals. Coursework will include demonstrations, readings, and a range of studio exercises including scale models/prototypes. Open to non-majors with permission.
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the physical and visual properties of a wide range of materials used in the development of the built environment. Through a series of guest speakers, field trips and lectures, students develop a system for materials research, data gathering, and analysis that leads to an understanding of the functional, aesthetic, economic, and environmental aspects of materials, as well as their relevance to design. The course culminates in an application of materials to a conceptual studio project. Open to non-majors with permission.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces techniques for representing interior architectural spaces in the digital environment. Using AutoCAD, students begin with basic 2D floor plans and build an understanding of the digital medium to develop complex environments visualized through realistic 3D computer renderings. Students apply the knowledge acquired in this course to interior design studio projects. Open to non-majors with permission.
-
2.00 Credits
Students expand their drawing skills with an intense focus on the figure. Emphasis is on gesture, proportion, foreshortening, value, and line. Students experiment with a variety of dry and wet media. Ongoing homework and sketchbook assignments inform class work. Open to non-majors with permission.
-
3.00 Credits
Students focus on visually communicating ideas through drawing, both abstractly and from direct observation, while experimenting with media and techniques. Assignments combine technique and concept to encourage students' problemsolving abilities. Projects stress perspective and compositional concerns in black, white, and color media. Students' concepts dictate the selection of media, technique, composition, and format. Students use the computer as a drawing tool, and integrate digital drawing throughout the semester. Open to non-majors with permission. Prerequisite: DE 122
-
3.00 Credits
Students experiment with drawing to imply motion. The assignments integrate technique and concept to develop students' problemsolving abilities in the realm of drawing, with the added dimension of time. Students explore expressive and technical approaches to a range of narrative drawing, animated gesture drawing, and drawing for storyboards. Open to nonmajors with permission. Prerequisite: DE 122
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to an overview of image-making and architectural construction, from early history to 1600. The focus is primarily on objects and structures made in the lands around the Mediterranean Sea and northern Europe. Students study these items in relationship to the Western art tradition. Students gain an appreciation of the aesthetic values of these cultures and an understanding of the historical, socio-political, religious, scientific, and other contexts for the creation of art and architecture. Open to all majors. Note: This course will satisfy H&S Humanities or Elective requirements for non-Art and non-Design students. Cross-listed with AR 141.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to a survey of art, from the Renaissance to the early twentieth century. Students study the stylistic development of painting, sculpture, architecture, and photography within the context of changing political, religious, intellectual, and cultural environments. The course uses textbook illustrations, slides, videos, and art museums to examine the art of various time periods. Class lectures and discussion augment the text and other readings. This course satisfies history in the major for art or design. Open to all majors. Note: This course will satisfy H&S Humanities or Elective requirements for non-Art and non-Design students. Cross-listed with AR 142.
-
2.00 Credits
Technique options are courses that further an understanding and application of technical skills within a design context. Students will have the opportunity to experiment with specific technical and material interests, such as oil painting, screen-printing, photography, pastel, watercolor, and letterpress. Courses are offered either fall or spring semesters on a recurring basis. Open to non-majors with permission.
