Principles of Design
Principles of Design Balance Proportion/Scale Emphasis Rhythm Introduction The principles of design are essential to the development and production of clothing used by individuals and families around the world. Each principle has a specific role in creating an aesthetically pleasing garment or ensemble. The principles of design consist of: balance, proportion (also referred to as scale), emphasis, and rhythm. When a garment or ensemble uses the elements and principles of design to create a visual unity, harmony is achieved. Garments often integrate more than one principle, while drawing from the elements of design to create a cohesive look. The following discussion will present background information on each of the principles of design and applications to clothing design and construction. Balance According to Wolfe (2011) balance implies that there is an equilibrium or uniformity among the parts of a design (p. 205). To achieve balance, a garment or ensemble should have equal visual weight throughout the design. The use of structural features, added embellishments, or decorations to a garment contribute to the appearance of a garment or ensemble being balanced or not. A clothing designer can utilize surface designs on fabric to construct a garment creating visual balance. Further, color, line, and texture can impact the balance of a design. For example, cool and light colors have less visual weight than dark, warm colors. If an individual is wearing a small amount of a dark, warm color it can be balanced out with a larger amount of cool, light colors. Balance used in clothing design can be categorized into two groups: Formal and Informal Balance.

Meaningful Urban Design: Teleological/Catalytic/Relevant
Journal ofUrban Design,Vol. 7, No. 1, 35– 58, 2002 Meaningful Urban Design: Teleological/Catalytic/Relevant ASEEM INAM ABSTRACT Thepaper begins with a critique ofcontemporary urban design:the eldof urban designis vague because it isan ambiguousamalgam of several disciplines, includingarchitecture, landscapearchitecture, urban planningand civil engineering; it issuper cial because itisobsessedwith impressions and aesthetics ofphysical form; and it ispractised as an extensionof architecture, whichoften impliesan exaggerated emphasison theend product. The paper then proposesa meaningful(i.e. truly consequential to improvedquality of life) approach to urban design,which consists of: beingteleological (i.e. driven by purposes rather than de ned by conventional disci- plines);being catalytic (i.e. generating or contributing to long-term socio-economic developmentprocesses); andbeing relevant (i.e. grounded in rst causes andpertinent humanvalues). The argument isillustratedwith a number ofcase studiesof exemplary urban designers,such asMichael Pyatok and Henri Ciriani,and urban designprojects, such asHorton Plazaand Aranya Nagar, from around the world. The paper concludes withan outlineof future directionsin urban design,including criteria for successful urban designprojects (e.g. striking aesthetics, convenient function andlong-term impact) anda proposedpedagogical approach (e.g. interdisciplinary, in-depth and problem-driven). Provocations In the earlypart of 1998,two provocative urban design eventsoccurred at the Universityof Michigan in Ann Arbor.The rstwas an exhibition organizedas partof aninternationalsymposium on ‘ City,Space 1 Globalization’. The second wasa lecture by the renowned Dutch architectand urbanist, Rem Koolhaas. By themselves,the events generated much interestand discussion, yet were innocu- ous,compared to, say, Prince Charles’s controversialcomments on contempor- arycities in the UKorthe gathering momentumof the New Urbanism movementin the USA.

On the Value(S) of an Architect
2 A Discipline Adrift? Teaching Architectural Ethics in Today’s World On the Value(s) of an Architect ANASTASIA H. CORTES Virginia Tech This paper situates architectural ethics in the context of observer: they either like it or they don’t. Architects earn practice by using stakeholder theory and the concept of pro- professional degrees and are licensed, like doctors, lawyers, fessional judgment to describe the activities of architectural and engineers. However, architecture is the lowest paid of practice. Architects are taught the skills necessary to make these four professions. Although buildings are tangible arti- ethical professional judgments in the contexts of design and facts of an architect’s work, the design of a building is less professional service, but they are not necessarily taught easily understood by the lay person than, say, recovery from how to effectively communicate the value of those skills to an illness. Often the public may value the architect’s work those outside the profession. Stakeholder theory provides a based on the subjective evaluation of the observer: they framework to describe the practice of architecture in a way either like it or they don’t. The profession cannot survive on that enables non-practitioners to appreciate value of the the basis of the public’s “like” of their work, as discussed in complex decisions and activities performed by architects. a 2015 article in Forbes magazine, which declared contem- porary architecture to be ugly, irrelevant, and out of touch “There’s a snobbery at work in architecture…The sub- with society.3 In support of this claim, the author offered up ject is too often treated as a fine art, delicately wrapped a description of the American Institute of Architects’ effort in mumbo-jumbo.

Open design is a type of decentralized innovation that is derived from applying principles of open source software and crowdsourcing to product development. Crowdsourcing has gained popularity in the last decade, ranging from translation services, to marketing concepts, and new product funding.

It begins with an idea and culminates in a structure that may serve its occupants for several decades, even centuries. Like the manufacturing of products, building construction requires an ordered and planned assembly of materials. It is, however, far more complicated than product manufacturing. Buildings are assembled outdoors by a large number of diverse constructors and artisans on all types of sites and are subject to all kinds of weather conditions. Additionally, even a modest-sized building must satisfy many performance criteria and legal constraints, requires an immense variety of materials, and involves a large network of design and production firms. Building construction is further complicated by the fact that no two buildings are identical; each one must be custom built to serve a unique function and respond to its specific context and the preferences of its owner, user, and occupant.

Architecture
Architecture Architects are licensed professionals who design buildings and other structures. The design of a building involves far more than its appearance alone. Buildings also must be functional, safe, economical, and suit the needs of the people who use them. There are three main steps to become an architect: the attainment of a professional degree in architecture, work experience through an internship, and licensure through the passing of the Architect Registration Exam. Explore Become an Architect at NCARB.org. Degree Students choose from three paths to obtain a professional degree in architecture: • 5-year Bachelor of Architecture (B. Arch) degree: most transfer students do not choose this option due to course sequencing or • 2-year master’s degree after obtaining a 4-year bachelor’s degree in architecture or related area (M. Arch) or • 3 to 4-year master’s degree after obtaining a 4-year bachelor’s degree in a major other than architecture (M. Arch) Criteria of Importance for Acceptance to Architecture School May Include • Grade point average • Portfolio if required (freehand drawing, painting, graphic design, sculpture, etc.) • Personal interview • Past practical work experience related to the field (construction, building, planning, etc.) • Strong art, math, and science skills (especially physics) Important Notes • Due to the sequential nature of the coursework, transfer applicants for bachelor degree programs in architecture are often considered for admission as first year students. Four or five additional years to complete the program may be required. • Each architecture school has its own set of requirements. Research each school for specific information. • Make sure to check application deadline dates.
