This course provides an opportunity for the student to continue development of personal research methodologies, design philosophy, processes and innovative approaches to materiality. Students will be guided to further develop a personalized approach to design aesthetic, vocabulary and markets. Students will examine more complex design concepts in order to demonstrate a breadth of understanding of brand identity and user contexts. Consideration will be given to the visual curation of the fashion process in terms of personal identity, communication and brand messaging. In this third course in a four-course core sequence, students will identify and understand the importance of re-contextualizing, defining, and applying personal design aesthetics to a broad range of product and/or related fashion design outcomes.
