Project 3: Vehicle Interior Design

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: 5ID235

The course provides a practical platform to learn and develop the vehicle interior design process with a main focus in sustainable innovation and the three-dimensional product definition. **Module 1: Research and concept formulation (3 credits)** This module includes lectures, information and inspiration gathering, context mapping and reflection leading to argumentation around a vehicle interior design concept to be explored in the process. The result of this phase is usually a design brief, including an objective description of desirable attributes for a future vehicle interior proposal. Sustainable materials and technology are investigated and proposed as references for the project. **Module 2: Technical definition and ideation (4,5 credits)** During this module students learn how to define the basic technical and ergonomic references that will frame and support the creation of a future vehicle interior. The students also get guidance on both broad and focused idea exploration including analog and digital methods. **Module 3: Project development (6 credits)** This module consists of learning how to effectively implement conceptual ideas into a tangible product proposition supported by 2 and 3-dimensional design tools. Design detail is developed to a high level of definition. **Module 4: Presentation (1,5 credits)** The final part of the course will prepare the students to select relevant information needed to communicate the design process and create visualisation material that effectivelly conveys the artistic vision for a future vehicle interior proposal.
