CONCEPT:  In this design-focused workshop, students will
rediscover core values that guide and shape design ideas but
are sometimes hard to translate into work. The workshop is
intended to guide participants through methods that recharge
the design development that feeds their work. We will concentrate on individual processes for forming ideas, testing
them and refining them into new works. Students will participate in a series of short exercises to experience a more fluid
way of running through explorations that help develop new
designs. Additionally, daily lectures will expose students to
an enormous amount of imagery to stimulate new thinking
and to demonstrate conceptual themes. The final results will
be models and/or full-scale mock-ups of new designs that will
hopefully encourage new ways of workin ˂
