Caulfield First semester 2008 (Day)
This unit is the first part of a major industrial design project. The unit provides an opportunity to research issues, undertake conceptual designs and develop refinements on the basis of the advanced attainment achieved at the end of the third year. Students should be particularly concerned with the development of their personal design philosophy, the way in which it responds to social needs and its visual and social expression as a preliminary to its virtuoso development in the major project. The contemporary discourse in industrial design and related theory is actively discussed and debated, with students encouraged to develop a personal position relative to it.
On successful completion of this unit, students will:
Mid-semester portfolio: 20%
Final portfolio: 80%
8 studio hours and 16 hours of independent study hours per week.
