Course content
Weeks 1 - 13 - Introduction to the content and scope of work in the semester - assigning the main semester project - final work. - Decorative sculpture and solitaires for completion of interior and exterior - architectural design, drawing design and mock-model, considering the suitability of the material and the final realization at least in a scale. Tiles, floor tiles and interior surfaces design - flat interior designs consisting of designs of different parts and composition of entire areas. Relief decoration of elements and composition of entire areas - realizing elements in the material with a partial demonstration of an area design at a scale of 1:1, the possibility of drawing into a specific area. - Ceramic interior and exterior sculpture (porcelain, ceramic or combination) - selection of appropriate materials, link to architecture, walls designs, fountains, etc. - Preparatory drawings and sketches. - Selecting the best alternatives. - Plaster models, basic skeleton in the material, documentation. - Ongoing implementation of the sub-tasks assigned, including consultations. - Obligatory continuous production, consultation and correction of semester project (KP). - Finalization of the KP, submission of the final version in time according to the teacher's instructions. - Documentation and presentation.

prerequisite
Knowledge
of technical and technological design techniques in the field of ceramic design, to apply them in designing, realization and technical documentation of project of ceramic sets and interior elements and complements, to use the means of ceramic design for designing variants with a view to correctly linking the function and aesthetics of the product, to recall the knowledge of the technical and technological procedures of processing a 3D model of a product or prototype of complex project assignment, of technical and technological procedures related with the production of a ceramic design product, about ways of critically assessing his own work in a discipline context, about the appropriate forms of presentation and promotion of the prototype/project, on ways to justify and defend their own design activities in relation to other members of the design team,
Skills
to individually elaborate a complex project of ceramic set for special purposes and interior elements and complements, to use common and advanced technical and technological procedures of ceramic design and production based on the specifics of different materials and their processing, to sketch by free hand and 3D editors the design variants of the produced product with respect to its technical functionality and aesthetic qualities, to choose the most appropriate option and create complex project documentation, to submit proposal and selection to the contracting authority and to explain it with regard to the assignment and the established requirements, to create a 3D model of complex product using standard modeling techniques, 3D editors and 3D printing, to elaborate technical documentation needed for serial production of the product, to choose the appropriate modeling technology and to design the prototype technology,

learning outcomes
Knowledge
about planning of more complex project to design and realize ceramic decorative interior and exterior sculptures and solitaires, tiles and floor tiles, interior surface designs for both mass production and uncommon promising design, about particula phases of work and their organization, about designing variants with a view to correctly linking the function and aesthetics of the product, about influence of design and shaping to the function and other factors, about specifics of preparing the project for serial production (including documentation, plaster models), of ways of communicating with the contracting authority in order to identify his / her requirements, of ways of comunication with the company responsible for serial production of a designed product, about technological procedures of other disciplines needed to elaborate design and realization of a ceramic protorype on professional level, about local and foreign companies and individuals research the same problematics, about designing innovations in technology and product functionality,
Skills
to individually elaborate a project of ceramic decorative interior and exterior sculptures and solitaires, tiles and floor tiles, interior surface designs for both mass production and uncommon promising design based on general assignment, to find several different variants of solution with accent on diferent functional and processing aspects, to choose most suitable variant, to individually choose a sphere of creation and designing of own interest, to be individually finding innovations and own style, to search for innovation in ceramic solutions of interior surfaces, writes and equips the research with visualization of the project in the given thematic area, to be an active part of a team, to represent own discipline and profession and to individually learn to help develop the common project, to choose the appropriate modeling technology and design the prototype technology, to elaborate the prototype of high quality with the declared procedures, to create a 3D model of complex product using standard modeling techniques, 3D editors and 3D printing, to critically assess his/her own work in the field context and style framework, after analyzing the assignment to assess hir/ her proposals and procedures and to apply the most suitable one to carry out the work to choose appropriate forms of presentation and promotion of the prototype/project, to reflect effects of propagation and to choose most suitable forms for targeted group, to justify the value of the product / project in the interdisciplinary context, in fornt of a customer and other members of a team, to create the design for serial production (including documentation, plaster models), and at the same time to realize the set in the material,
