COURSE: VISUAL COMPOSITIONS- COLOUR IN 3-DIMENTIONAL SPACE
COURSE ID: N1-3050
COURSE TYPE: Laboratory
COURSE CATEGORY: Compulsory
HOURS PER WEEK: 4
ECTS: 6
TYPICAL SEMESTER: 3rd
AIM AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE
The main objective of this course is to involve the students into the
study and analysis of 3-Dimensional space, the subsequent development of
their skills with the use of colour on surfaces, volumes and in
perspectives.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Throughout this studio-based workshop of the 3rd semester, which has a
duration of 4 hours per week, students are encouraged to focus on design
and colour representations, but also on the re-composition of
architectural elements in interior spaces with the use of the collage
technique, and by adding elements of line and colour. Furthermore,
students are requested to develop spaces into 2-Dimensional visual
compositions and into 3-Dimensional small scale models.
During the projects, scheduled for this semester, the students are
encouraged to experiment with a combination and mixture of various media
and techniques, such as acrylics and cardboard structures. They are
also introduced to image editing techniques with the use of the
programme Adobe Photoshop.
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES
An essential part of this course is the understanding of the fundamental
principles involved in the creation of a composition and the importance
found in the use of 2-Dimensional composition as a subject of
reference, to generate a 3-Dimensional composition.
