ART 530 - Foundations of Design

The main focus of course is the development of fundamental proficiencies in design theory, language, and visual communication techniques. Projects will emphasize the elements of design (line, shape, tone, texture, color, scale, etc.), principles of two dimensional and three dimensional design, and the basic principles of composition (balance, rhythm, unity, contrast, etc.), as well as the implications and applications of these proficiencies as they pertain to design. Students will apply fundamental drawing and technical drawing skills to a variety of studio projects.
