GD107 Design Studio - Components is a beginning-level studio course appropriate for students enrolled in Graphic Design. The course serves as an introduction to analysis and form-making in graphic design through investigation of design artifacts as components of larger physical, social, cultural, and technological systems. Students will observe the world around them, define problems, and develop creative solutions. These solutions will be produced with an eye towards clear and effective visual communication. Critiques will build fluency in the language of design and sharpen their evaluation of design choices.
