In this course, the fundamental design elements and principles covered in EÜT121 - Basic Design I are revisited and explored in more comprehensive and long-term exercises. The goal is to enhance students' ability to think abstractly and in three dimensions. Throughout the course, students will work with different materials to develop their compositional sensitivities. The course encourages students to freely express themselves as designers and create original designs.
1. Be able to create three-dimensional compositions using various materials in accordance with compositional values and project objectives,
2. Utilize basic design concepts and principles to carry out design projects,
3. Recognize, define, and evaluate a successful design work, and
4. Confidently use fundamental design terminology to express their ideas.
