Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Students are expected to explore actual trends related to interiors, decoration, accesories and interior textiles through all sorts of sources. They are alleged to make up a story about a theme they would choose in a way to form their own inspirations and prepare the associated story board on the matter. They are to prepare interior textile collection and its supporting fabric designs and present them in a catologue. The courses develop in a process including reseach, sketching, design developing, printing process and presentation, with what has been produced being criticised and the next planned. The transition from design to output benefits from CAD processes and performs a technical resolution for the matter involved. Uses of interior textile to be produced in the application, fabric composition, target consumers, technique of production, and all related costs are the issues to be studied. Assesment of the course considers research dimension, interpretation of current trends, unique inspiration source efficient benefits from visual material. Sketching, development of design, appilcation and presentation are all supposed to be an integrated frame

Assessment Methods

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

Assesment of the course includes dimension of research, efficient benefits from unique visual material, development of designs suitable to patterns to be produced and the related collection. One considers whether an aimed design has been realised and whether there has been an interrogative and problem solving approach to the matter or not.
