This document outlines the requirements for Project 1 of an introductory design course. The project has two parts: 1) Students will sketch design elements found in nature and the built environment. They will produce sketches and an artwork exploring lines, shape, texture, form, hue, and other elements. 2) Working in groups, students will create nine artworks using everyday items to demonstrate understanding of design principles like asymmetry and pattern. They will present the artworks along with explanation boards. The project aims to help students recognize and apply design elements and principles. They will be assessed based on demonstrated understanding, originality, and workmanship quality shown in their sketches, artworks, and explanations.
