Course Content
Considers materials experience as (i) design expertise within generative contexts, and (ii) user experience (UX) within evaluative contexts. Dynamic-interactional and static-visual bases of materials experience are studied, connected to sensorial-aesthetic, affective, cognitive, and performative dimensions of user experience. Sub-topics include: colour-material-finish (CMF), textures, graphics, material design, material circularity, material resources, material acceptance, alternative materials, and material-driven design and innovation. Students undertake a major research and/or design project.
