Overview

This unit continues from IDE3813. It seeks to develop your sophistication toward transportation concepts through greater awareness of modelling, materials and processes. You have an opportunity to create 3D representation in a variety of appropriate modelling media. This enables you to evaluate how well your designs match up to particular technical and cultural requirements. You will be expected to develop your own design proposals. Topics cover advanced aspects of 3D modelling and production processes in a variety of materials and the aesthetic aspects of transportation. Studio project work involves the development of a sophisticated piece of transportation design.
