Course Objectives This course builds upon the general knowledge of basic design concepts taught in the prerequisite course, ICM101 Basic Design in Interior Architecture I, in an advanced and detailed manner. It is based on the organization of volumes using planes and linear elements for defined functions. The course aims to introduce the language of abstraction, shapes, and forms, and to develop the ability to use this language. A primary objective of the course is to cultivate design process and presentation skills through the use of three-dimensional models that illustrate the organization of volumes and/or spaces.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Gain the ability to construct a network of relationships between volumes and/or spaces by controlling three-dimensional variables.
  • Develop design awareness and manual dexterity by creating mostly three-dimensional examples.
  • Understand the problem-solving process through the analysis of the works of designers and artists.
  • Gain decision-making skills through the experience of analysis and synthesis in the design process.
  • Express three-dimensional design solutions in an appropriate design language by using various communication methods (visual and verbal) and tools.
Course Content The course focuses on the three-dimensional network of relationships between design elements. It consists of practical studies that teach the language of design through the method of learning by doing and giving criticism. The course also encompasses the utilization of principles of color and texture in volumes and/or spaces. Furthermore, the course incorporates the development of hand mind skills through applications and presentations.
