Aesthetic Awareness

Art of animation as an analysis of movement is based on the theory that the vision remains on the eye after the disappearance of the actual image, and this scientific theory is the same that the film industry was built upon. Recently, various techniques and ideas have entered the print design process as a means of expressing a phenomenon subject to the human will to change and elevate our aesthetic awareness and feelings, which rise in various forms of designs that reveal themselves in design work and are embodied in animation films. The design artwork falls within a group of intertwined elements fused with each other, reflecting the peculiarity of this work, as it is innovation and creating new and interesting things, so that the design is suitable for the desired purpose and beautifully. Perhaps the simplest type of optical illusion that can clarify to us the idea of the impression of the existence of an image that does not actually exist is represented in the decree paper.

The Impact

"The use of VR technology within education is an area that has generated great interest in recent years, so this work follows that trend and contains nuances related to user-centred design education. The objective of this work is to identify students’ perceptions of the use of VR technology for ethnographic research. A group of 20 industrial design students from Tecnologico de Monterrey conducted a field investigation, which included interviews and surveys, using HMD with videos and stereoscopic images of a public park in Monterrey, Mexico. Based on the research and information analysis, areas of opportunity were identified and urban furniture proposals for the public park that place were generated. Once the design process was completed, an evaluation instrument was applied to measure, through statistical analysis, the students' perceptions of their experience using technology in the design process; gender, qualification obtained and the relevance of the technology used was also considered."

Ubiquitous Presence

Design has been described by Bruno Latour as the missing masses, and tellingly as “nowhere to be said and everywhere to be felt” (2005: 73). Traditionally, not only objects, but design’s presence in general has gone largely unnoticed by the public, but that is changing, due, in considerable part, to the ubiquitous presence of computing technology. Design, as representative of unnoticed and neutral objects, is no longer feasible, but design, as a participative presence in the lives of its users, is fast gaining ground in our complex society. Designers are no longer fully in control of the design process, meaning design practice, and as a result design education must change to adapt to the increasing pace at which different social groups are evolving new ways of communicating and living.

AbstractIn their early years of education, design students may experience difficulties in reframing design problems. Since reframing is linked to creativity, this may be problematic. While there are some models available to describe the reframing process, it is yet unclear how they are supporting design students. This study concerned the development and test of a framing model based on co-evolution transitions, through a two-part study: interviews with expert designers and workshops followed by group interviews with novices. The resulting model offers a way of thinking and a way of working, based on the fluidity of the design process. This study yielded two major insights. Firstly, students tend to perceive the problem space to be fixed once they defined it, even if they discovered disparate information along the way. Secondly, the developed model provides students with guidance and confidence in dealing with complex problems. Our results have a considerable impact on design education, as it is important to reinforce to design students that both the problem and solution understanding are fluid, and this model provides initial steps to help designers structuring their process.

In the 21st century design thinking or problem-solving methodology has obtained a wide response in product development and service provision. It is a way of thinking which takes us to changes. Currently, in Latvia the schools which implement vocational secondary education art and design education programmes and also vocational orientation education programmes in art and design area have obtained the broadest experience in design acquisition. Taking into account the significance of problem-solving in learners’ development, design has been included in the comprehensive education content. Teachers need a new skill – to organize the design process so that their pupils would acquire problem-solving skills in a practical action. How have the teachers organized the design process? What learning methods have been applied? How is the design thinking developed? Goal analyse theoretical knowledge in design thinking and teachers’ experience of learning technologies in design acquisition which has been acquired in art education of vocational orientation. The Latvian National Culture Centre has compiled the experience of art teachers in methodological material “No Tēla līdz dizainam. Putns” (“From Image to Design. Bird”), it can look at 24 individual or pedagogical workgroup design process methodology for primary school pupils. Using designer IDEO group 3 I model – Inspiration, Ideation, Implementation, in the methodological material, development of design thinking has been described with 10 different techniques. The author’s analysis conveys the possible competences, what knowledge and skills pupils acquire in the design process, what techniques and methods the teacher applies in the learning process in design acquisition. The methodological material used in the research is one of the first for elementary school pupils’ design thinking development in Latvia, it enables us to identify problems and needs for school teachers.

In recent years, green design has experienced rapid development, but also exposed a series of problems such as high cost, lack of humanization, low recycling rate and so on. For these drawbacks, designers have an unavoidable responsibility. This paper analyzes the existing problems in green design. From the change of design thinking, the eco-friendly design method is explored. In this paper, the design from material selection to production, and then to the recovery of the whole process of overall consideration, follow the principle of reduction, reuse, recycling. The content of visual communication design can be roughly classified. According to their own characteristics, the best design scheme is selected. Through the application of different media, replace the high pollution, high consumption of paper printing. It is proposed that the large-scale promotion of environmental protection materials can be realized by simplifying the quantity and types of materials. At the same time, this paper expounds the implementation method of green design education in art design education in Colleges and universities. This paper fully analyzes the purpose and value of green design education from the curriculum and content, teaching methods, the specific implementation of teaching effect evaluation and evaluation. The results show that promoting sustainable development of green education can cultivate students' creativity, innovation and creative ability. A perfect green design education system and a correct concept of ecological civilization can be established.

  Designers see culture as a starting point for designing meaningful products that appeal to users. Culture has a dynamic structure that is constantly affected by social changes. This research examines how socio-cultural factors are perceived, analysed and transferred by design students.  The design process is aimed to identify the complex or challenging and on the contrary clearly understandable aspects. In the first stage of the research, the ideas of the established cultural images, culturally influential designs and designers who use culture as a starting point were determined through 24 industrial design students. The ideas of the students were asked about design and identity in a particular geographic area, they were also asked to explain their ideas about traditional forms and draw forms of them by sketches. The results are presented together with visual examples. The common points of how the culture-oriented design approach is used by designers in the product design process and the frequent mistakes, approaches and examples of projects in this process are revealed.   Keywords: Keywords: Industrial design, education, material culture, design

<p>In visual communication design education, teachers strive to help students understand how to generate ideas in whatever form of graphics they are trying to create. This paper focuses on how we apply the concept of synesthesia in a visual composition, specifically in the form of a page layout comprising both text and images. This research is done in a class of second-year students majoring in graphic design in a visual communication design bachelor program. Students are given an assignment to create a multi-column layout and incorporate the synesthesia concept in their design. The result is quite interesting, with some artworks showing what can be considered as universal synesthetic experience for the viewers. The artworks are then evaluated and considered for future classroom exercises.</p>
