LIST



LECTURE

Week 4 - Moodboard and Proposal

This week we need to make our proposal for our project 1. We need to create our moodboard and style guide, moodboard is a compilation of references that represents our IP (intellectual property).

It is necessary to create a proposal because we will categorize the reference and then extract the information for further development.

Week 5

In Project 1, we need to make as many silhouettes as much as possible and choose one of them to focus on and then continue on Project 2 where we design the interior. Try to draw the design as much as possible (like a blueprint) and it’s function.

Our lecturer also explains what to be careful of when we are using a professional's work as our reference, we need to entail to our clients what parts of the example we are going to extract and use in our work.

Taking references is a good way to start rather than starting everything from scratch
