Course description
The purpose of design is to create phenomena, and we design things as a means to naturally generate such phenomena. It is difficult to achieve this goal with a single means, and as a result, a situation often arises in which various means are combined and linked together. In other words, in design, it is always required to "think about things continuously, coordinate means in a complex manner, and design means comprehensively," and it is essential to acquire the "ability to think about the overall concept" as a technical skill. In this class, we aim to improve the ability to think about the overall concept through various lectures and exercises.
Purpose of class
To get that design is about "thinking about things continuously, coordinating multiple means, and designing means comprehensively," and will acquire a sense of "designing an overall concept" using various means.
Goals and objectives
  1. Be able to logically explain how design is an integrated design.
  2. Be able to consider from a comprehensive perspective when design something.
  3. Be able to explain affordance with examples.
  4. Able to propose new designs based on a comprehensive point of view and through multiple means.
