GDES 1B24 Colour & Two-dimensional Design 0.50 Credit(s) Studio |
|
This course initiates students in the processes of visual perception using analogue and digital methods, and the principal vocabularies of two-dimensional design, colour and spatial organization. Through investigations of light, point, plane, volume and colour mixing, students are introduced to the physiology of vision and the elements of two-dimensional forms and spaces. Building upon conceptual, visual, relational and practical components of two-dimensional design, students further examine how ideas, forms, shapes, colours and two-dimensional spaces are related to one another. Exercises and assignments germane to contemporary design practices focus on two-dimensional form generations and composition, applied colour vocabulary, contextual colour applications, spatial sensitivity and development of practical two-dimensional structures. Information acquired from this course enables students to use vocabulary appropriately and to apply learned visual and spatial sensibilities to studies in design. |
