Vehicle Design Studio 3

Course Code

IDSN 4501

Academic Year

2016-2017

This course is focused upon utilizing skills learned in the previous 3 semesters and applying them in a competitive environment by building a project for a specific transportation design competition. The student will be required to not only create a project that is successful in it s own right, but is also an effective answer to what the competition entered requires. Projects will be monitored by weekly consultation with the Professor, and supported by intensive in-class sketching assignments to build content into the project. An encouragement to balance understanding of design context vs. conceptual development will assist students in their process. Students will utilize research, inspiration boards, and brand and corporate histories to create a presentation that is effective and relevant in the international environment.
