Study Models were created to convey a feeling, emotion and experience using different (lighting, color, textures, proportion) techniques.

The students had to take into consideration that one of the spaces in their Final Project (house/residence) must reflect the result of at least one of your 3D model Concepts.

Learning Objectives

Understand plagiarism in the Visual Arts specifically in Interior Design Projects

Gain a well-rounded understanding about how to translate a design inspiration into an original work.

Learn how to stay behind the line that separates the source of inspiration from the finished work.

BASIC DESIGN CONCEPT - ORIGINAL DESIGN

Students identified Design Principles & Elements of a Study Image presented

Base on Design Principles & Elements they chose 3 additional inspiration images related to the Study Image.

Students developed a DNA word for each image.

They developed a Design Concept Study Model Referring to the list of materials provided

Students took their Design Principles & Elements, Inspiration images & DNA words and Design Concept, and developed a physical 3D model out of the mate-rials list.

The students had to take into consideration that the 3D model resulting from their analysis and design process should be included in some way in their final project. It could be perceived as a piece of art, furniture, light fixture, structure, etc.
