Synopsis
This unit represents the third of a three-part design project and students are expected to continue with the research initiated in Design project (part two). Defined designs are expected to be detailed resulting in an assessable design outcome. Regular group and individual critiques of the project will be undertaken as the project and the thinking underlying it develop. Both the intentions of students and the results of their work are debated in group discussions and critical sessions. Students will be expected to demonstrate a strong capability to detail design issues.
