    Bellevue Community College Fall 2004 Interior Design 160: GRAPHIC COMMUNICATION FOR DESIGN Class Session: MW 9:30a-12:20p Credit Hours: Five (5) Location: L110 Instructor: Dan Beert Office: L114A Hours: MW 1:30 - 3:30, F 10:30-11:30 and by appointment or email email: [email protected] Phone: (425) 564-4041 COURSE DESCRIPTION This course introduces graphic tools, techniques, and conventions used for effective visual communication in design. Students apply theory as they develop skills in architectural drafting, lettering, and basic rendering and perspective drawing skills. This will be done through readings, lectures, and studio work. Drawings will be assessed for comprehension, layout, neatness, and the overall quality. Students will evaluate and subjectively critique design methods. Prerequisite: ART 110 and 120. COURSE OUTCOMES: Students after successfully completing Graphic Communication I will be able to: 1. Describe the reasons for learning visual communication skills and conventions, and their application to interior design and related professions. 2. Describe the necessary characteristics and relevant conventions for the use of lines and line weights in drawings. 3. Describe the salient characteristics of orthographic, paraline, and perspective drawings, and identify appropriate applications for each drawing type 4. Describe the purpose and characteristics of rendering interior materials and textures by applying basic monochromatic rendering techniques as a way of conveying depth of space and visual interest. 5. Incorporate orthographic, paraline, linear perspective, and freehand perspective drawings into an on- going process of developing three-dimensional visualization skills to aid in the understanding two- dimensional representations of objects and spaces (e.g., by using a three-dimensional drawing to assist in visualizing an object otherwise described with two-dimensional orthographic drawings) After successful completion of Graphic Communication I, student work will: 1.

  • The Typographic Contribution to Language: 1987 Towards a Model of Typographic Genres and Their Underlying Structures
    The typographic contribution to language: 1987 towards a model of typographic genres and their underlying structures Robert Waller A note about this edition After completing my PhD thesis in 1987, I left the research career that had led up to it, and went into practice as an information designer, although some ideas from the thesis were published (Waller 1990, 1999). For the next twenty years, my main focus was commercial survival, and I gave it little thought until Judy Delin and John Bateman got in touch. Their AHRC-funded GeM project looked at the role of layout in written text, and took a genre-based approach. I was delighted when they used my model as a starting point for their own richer and more robust version (Allen, Bateman and Delin 1999, Delin, Bateman and Allen 2002). At their suggestion I created a digital version, by converting the original WriteNow file into an early version of Word, and upwards through newer Word versions. The GeM project made this available online, and I have also placed it on my own website in recent years. However, many illustrations were missing, and others were scanned from photocopies. Recently I imported the Word file into InDesign, and I located and re-scanned most of the images. What you have here is the original text, although pages numbers have inevitably changed, and I have also corrected a number of typos. One or two exemplar documents are not the originals but make the same points. I am mindful that this thesis is over twenty-five years old and was written before the internet, and in the very early days of electronic documents and hypertext.

  • Chapter 1 Design and Graphic Communication
    CHAPTER 1 DESIGN AND GRAPHIC COMMUNICATION Introduction OVERVIEW A new machine structure or system must exist in the mind of the engineer or designer before it can become a reality. The design process is an exciting and challenging effort, during which the engineer-designer uses graphics as a means to create, record, analyze, and communicate design concepts or ideas. Everyone on the engineering and design team needs to be able to communicate quickly and accurately in order to compete in the world market. Like carpenters learning to use the tools of their wade, engineers, designers, and drafters must learn the tools of technical drawing. The design team progresses through five stages in the design process. To be a successful member of the design team, you must understand the process and know your role. While CAD has replaced traditional drafting toos for many design teams the basic concepts of graphic communication remain the same. Your proficiency in communicating using graphics will be valuable to you and to your eventual employer. 1-1 Engineering Design Engineering design is a process which requires a clear understanding of the function and performance expected of the end product. It is a way of conceiving and creating new ideas and then communicating those ideas to others in a way that can be easily understood. This is accomplished most efficiently through the use of graphics. Design can be used to reflect personal expressions or to enhance product development. 1.2 Design Concepts – Sources for New Models 1. Individual Creativity 2. Study Patent Drawings 3. Examine Manufactured Products 4.
