The basi
2、c Design course structure is beneficial to every student, irrespective of his or her major. Anyone taking the basic course is treated as a future designer. To achieve this, Basic Design attempts to cultivate within the student: 1. The Ability to Discover and Solve Problems Projects are developed so
3、one not only finds solutions, but also creates ones own design problems, and continually re-evaluates ones progress toward achieving a satisfying resolution to the problem. This means that solutions found in earlier assignments can suggest new problems for future assignments. 2. The Ability to Compr
4、omise As one confronts and discovers both the artificial and inherent limitations of a particular assignment, one learns to compromise and alter the original conception of the solution. This mental flexibility allows for continual re- examination and reworking of projects in the attempt to search fo
5、r more variations as a regular part of all design assignments. 3. Increased Creativity Everyone is directed to discard the obvious or traditional in favor of creating ones own unique solutions. All are encouraged to be different, and to show ones findings in public. This is the best way to protect o
6、riginal work from being copied or imitated by others. This, along with learning new methods of analyzing design problems, opens the way for increasing creativity. 4. Improved Self-understanding Through design everyone learns to analyze and improve ones own method of problem solving and to find what

Not only dose one discovers ones design abilities, but also learns how these abilities are able to relate to other art forms. 5. Craftsmanship Careful craftsmanship is required on all projects. Everyone learns patien
8、ce, precision and the use of basic tools which allows one to create finished works of professional quality. 6. Relevance This Basic Design course gives an introduction of basic geometry, engineering principles, and their relationship to artistic design. This course helps to develop abilities useful
9、not only by artists or designers such as observation, analysis, innovation, adaptation, planning and creativity. The assignments in this Basic Design course are unique in that each project is built one on each other. This approach allows people to gain new insights by looking at ones previous work.
10、In addition, this course can direct everyones individuality, allowing ones work to reflect their own personality and cultural background. All aspects of the results obtained will be beneficial. Although this Basic Design course is for teachers and students of design, it can be applied to many other
11、fields as well. This book can be read in any order. However, to take full advantage, it is recommended that all assignments are taken in sequence. It is crucial to use only basic drafting tools to compete each assignment rather than high tech equipment. The assignments in this book are highly adapta

This book is divided into two main sections: twenty-six “issues” and twenty-eight assignments, the latter sub-divi
13、ded into three parts. 1) The Introduction includes the philosophy of basic design and twenty-six issues. Each issue reveals the reasons for writing this book and the philosophy of teaching design. Some issues will be illustrated with the authors own design works. 2) Numerous design assignments are i
14、ncluded in three parts-each part addresses a problem through a sequence of assignments that may seem, at first, to be unrelated. An illustration appears at the end of each of the parts for review. a. Part one starts with adding a third dimension to a square-challenging 2D and 3D as one. All assignme
15、nts that follow allow one to go through changes, improving the senses through comparison and the ability to rationally understand the results. b. Part two begins with marking a joint out of two pieces of paper, and follows many related lessons. This leads to the design of a new font based on all 26 letters of the alphabet. c. Part three deals with the visual connection between two letters. Working with geometric
