Description

This studio-based course provides students with an understanding of the multi-disciplinary processes required for the design of a significant object that is relevant to their other coursework. The brief for the product will include artistic, formal, functional, siting, sustainability, and budgetary criteria. Multi-disciplinarity will be achieved by integrated team-working, with participants from other design-based faculties.

Coursework includes lectures, individual research, design, team management, visual and physical modelling, reporting and presentation. The product will be capable of subsequent fabrication and construction, in course COFA5001 Multi-Disciplinary Design Workshop B, though the two courses can be taken independently.
