Design Fundamentals (*)

Instructed beginning art majors fundamental design studio concepts applied to the two and three-dimensional realms. A course required for every art major at the School of Art and Art History, it aimed to provide the necessary skills to further explore the introductory classes in any area of art making. Students were exposed to theory and practical issues through basic geometry, drafting, model making, color theory, typography, composition theory and digital applications, providing in the end the foundation for future accomplishments.  Portfolio preparation and organization was a requirement. The use of traditional drafting tools was introduced as well as digital applications (InDesign, Illustrator, AutoCAD, Dreamweaver). Course activities included demonstrations, lectures and critiques.
