INT-152: Design 2: Structure and Color

Students expand their understanding of basic visual vocabulary acquired in Design 1, with more complex compositional principles, both 2-D and 3-D, such as grid systems, color systems and possibly time-based solutions to a variety of design problems. The 3-D component frequently includes both illusory and fabricated models. Students will investigate sophisticated color theories and perceptual effects with both digital and analog color systems, including transparency, translucency, additive and subtractive color mixing, perceptual properties as well as complimentary and simultaneous contrast. Students expand their design vocabulary and methods of critique while being introduced to research and analysis in the development of their professional practices.
