Major: Architecture
Problems connected with the coming into being and with the development of industrial design are discussed. Factors, determining it, are analysed. The nature, subject and scope of industrial design in architecture and the requirements to industrially produced articles, as well as the methodology of their design are discussed with a view to expanding students’ knowledge in this area.
Industrial Design Laboratory
Major: Architecture
The basic aim is students to break away from the relativity of the drawing in design and to carry out a creative investigation – by a model. After specifying the idea about the article a prototype of the latter is made. The prototypes are made by the method of experimental production, but from real materials and with instruments at hand.
