What it covers
Design studio 1 immerses you in both the creative and critical aspects of design. Through hands-on exploration - drawing, photography, digital imaging, paper crafting, and 3D mixed media modelling - you’ll develop an understanding of how to use the design elements, principles and theories to bring ideas to life. Individual projects, guided by a shared thematic inquiry, encourage curiosity, collaboration, and reflective thinking. Aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), these projects blend creativity with purpose and equip you with the skills and mindset to thrive in the evolving design field.
