FD 2130 - 3D Design: Space + Materiality
Credits: 3
This sophomore-level course explores theories and practices of three-dimensional design. Students use a variety of materials, processes, and techniques to explore fundamental issues such as volume, form, space, tension, color, and structure.
Prerequisites: FD 1020 - 2D Design: Elements + Principles
Course Learning Outcomes:
- Identify major concepts and issues fundamental to 3-D design through exercises, projects and readings specific to the course.
- Demonstrate the following processes – addition, subtraction, substitution, assemblage and fabrication as they relate to 3D design practices through class projects.
- Analyze the multiple ways three-dimensional forms function within a visual language by discussing the vocabulary and terms related to 3D forms through verbal and written assignments.
