Course content
This course is designed for students of technical colleges -in both bachelor's and follow-up master's programs - with interest in design. Weeks 1- 13 Design of simple objects of technical nature. Processing and presentation of simple basic shape studies. Creating drawing and, if necessary, spatial sketch models or 3D models. Ongoing corrections of submitted proposals. Ongoing assignment, submission and consultations of seminar sub-tasks.

prerequisite
Knowledge
structuring and processing search reports, about drawing procedures and composing 3D product sketches in 3D editors and free hands, designing variants with a view to correctly linking the function and aesthetics of the product, on ways of communicating with the contracting authority in order to identify his / her requirements, about the technical and technological procedures of processing a 3D model of a product or prototype of a medium-demanding assignment, about ways of critically assessing his own work in a discipline context, about the possibilities of full involvement in the design team, on ways to justify and defend their own design activities in relation to other members of the design team
Skills
fully involved in the design team, writes and equips visualization of the product search in the given thematic area, sketches the design variants of the produced product with respect to its technical functionality and aesthetic qualities, select the most appropriate option, justify and defend his choice to other members of the design team, his proposal and selection submits to the contracting authority and explains it with regard to the assignment and the established requirements, choose the appropriate modeling technology and design the prototype technology, creates a 3D model of medium-demanding product using standard modeling techniques, 3D editors and 3D printing, critically assesses his/her own work in the field context and style framework
