Objectives of the Course | |||||
The course aims to provide students with an insight into the historical conditions that were responsible for the emergence of industrial design as a profession. Moreover, it will introduce students with the major ideas, theories and arguments that have figured prominently in efforts to define the role of industrial design in modern societies, economies and the lives of individuals. Another objective is to help students develop a broader vision of design as an activity that takes place at the point of intersection between different spheres such as arts, crafts and industry, creativity and commerce, style and utility, material artifacts and human desires, ideology and utopia, production and consumption throughout history. Finally it aims to provide students with skills of inductive reasoning to connect an individual product of design to the historical context of its emergence, use and valuation. |
