About this subject
In this semester-based unit, there is a focus on applying the design principles to visual outcomes which follow a design brief.
Students develop design skills through research, the use of references and concept sketches. Students will be applying the design theories and generate visualisations to develop solutions that will use computer design programs to deliver final presentations.
