Handbook

This course builds upon your knowledge of transdisciplinary design in social and environmental contexts through design practice as a form of discourse and innovation. You will build knowledge and understanding of design problems through evaluation and analysis to deconstruct an existing real-world object or service, and produce a critical design response. You will engage with a range of human-centred research methodologies that will aid in your selection and analysis of a design problem. Taking a transdisciplinary approach to design you will develop innovative, informed and often unexpected design solutions that further challenge conventions and assumptions. This course fosters the development of a peer mentoring culture through iteration, interdisciplinary collaboration and critique.
