Course Summary

The aim of the class is to improve the design skills and deepen the understanding of the meaning and value of design in our society.

It is advisable for students who are willing to join any laboratory in the design area or advance into the design field, either in a digital or analog way, to take this class.

Courses of the design field in SFC is planned based on a concept called "Design Language." It is based on the design as a tool for problem finding and problem-solving, similar to artificial language (programming) and natural language (foreign language). Furthermore, the name "Design Language" also includes the meaning of literacy; that is, one ability that can be mastered by training. The design usually presupposes "sense," but as long as it is based on a certain logic, learning that logic will improve the sense at the same time. So the design language focuses on the process.

Therefore, this lecture consists of tasks to train the process from consideration to creation through actual work creation. Students are expected to understand the value and significance of new designs in society, develop future learning, production, and research plans, and create opportunities for them to leap forward through the class.
