INSTITUTE OF INDUSTRIAL DESIGN THE DEPARMENT OF DESIGN
PROJECT SCHOOL VS. COMPANY
The Institute comprises departments focusing on design, multimedia and information and communication technologies. It is characterized by the specialized teaching in the artistic field of design that determines the character of work at the Institute. The artistic field of design can be taken on undergraduate, postgraduate and PhD levels. The main aim of the Institute is to develop students’ creative potential within the whole process of designers’ training, i.e. to present students with the most possible complex information in the field of humanities and technical sciences; to teach them to be able to use artistic expression; to gain manual skills and to allow them to express their individual creativity. Video production, photography and multimedia are the other fields of the Institute. The Department of Computer Aided Architectural and Urban Design plays an important role in the process of using new information and communication technologies in the creative work and realizations of architectural and design projects. The Institute curricula are accredited for all degree levels.
The aim of the international project of cooperation among universities, KODRETA furniture company (production of bent metal furniture) and Polytrade CE (manufacturing, thermoforming of natural acrylic material HI-MACS) is to gain specific knowledge on furniture design, which is then produced by real producers, respecting the investor’s requirements, material and technological limits, ergonomics, marketing, psychology, sociology, etc.
Its aim is to conduct the pedagogical process at the Institute. The core teaching areas include artistic and creative disciplines, supplemented with the theory and methodology of design and design work, also with history of arts and design, technical subjects (products construction technology and uses and processing of materials). A very important part of the study is the understanding of human behavior and their attitudes to the work environment, ergonomics, as well as ecological and aesthetic criteria of products. Creative design studios are the core subjects, where students develop the skills of model making. The manual and computer design methods are applied proportionately within the whole process of school training. The core subjects include Design Basics I, II, Drawing, Model Making Studio, Industrial Design Studio I-IV, Physics of Shape, Technology, Model Making Techniques, Technical Mechanics, Constructions in Design, Typography, Graphic Design, History of Design, Surface Finishing, Technology of Product Constructions, Manufacturing Tools, Experimental Design Studio, Theory and Methodology of Design, Semiotics of Design, Integrated Studio, Visual Design – Studio, Mercantile Design – Studio, DTP – Studio.
THE IDEA BEHIND THE PROJECT Customized metal furniture production searches for new material ideas to diversify its product offer. LG HI-MACS, thanks to its characteristics, offers vast possibilities of application in design. By joining these to momentums, we expect creative design, free of stereotype and boredom
