ARTD 103 | Design Elements | 3 | School of Arch & Design |
This course introduces the foundational elements of two-dimensional design, focusing on how line, shape, color, and texture interact to create visually impactful compositions. Students will explore principles like balance, contrast, and unity to develop cohesive designs, using both traditional and digital techniques. By examining how these elements communicate meaning, students build a versatile foundation in effective visual communication. Classroom Hours - Laboratory and/or Studio Hours – Course Credits: 1-3-3 |
