|
Engage with a more comprehensive design process that includes the explore phase and the influence of stakeholders. |
|
Explore elements and principles of visual communication and the design styles of past designers. |
|
Use illustration sketches learn to understand the importance of documenting the design process. |
|
integrate a specified design style into a design concept |
|
demonstrate the use of illustration sketching, including
> a pictorial simulation of the appearance of an object as it would be seen by an observer who looks from a selected point of view; (1 Point or 2 Point Perspective)
> orthographic views of a 3D object projected onto 2D planes; often used to communicate a refined design concept |
|
analyse existing designs to understand that designs are informed by the inspiration of past accomplishments |
|
compare and contrast influential design styles, e.g. Art Deco, Bauhaus, Brutalism, Memphis, Minimalism, Modernism, Post-modernism |
|
form conclusions about how the elements and principles of visual communication are used to define design styles |
|
recognise that stakeholders have specific needs and wants that must be considered; stakeholders include users, clients, audiences, other designers, other professionals and technicians |
|
define problems by analysing stakeholder information and information about design styles to
> identify needs or wants
> describe the features |
|
identify design criteria used to judge the quality of design ideas and design concepts, based on |
|
write design briefs to describe problems and design criteria |
|
devise ideas by applying the elements and principles of visual communication, divergent thinking strategies and ideation sketching to visualise a range of possible ideas |
|
identify and interview a possible stakeholder to seek feedback on ideas |
|
evaluate the extent to which ideas match design criteria; use written notes such as dot points or sentences on drawings to record evaluation |
|
progress ideas by making modifications to initial ideas based on evaluation against criteria |
|
synthesise multiple ideas and design style information to propose design concepts in response to design problems |
|
make modifications to design concepts that improve the way in which they meet the design criteria; use written notes to indicate where concepts have been improved. Evaluate the extent to which design concepts meet the design criteria. |
|
use illustrations with written or spoken notes to visually communicate design proposals to audiences. |
