This course aims at developing students’ ‘graphic eye’ by
analyzing existing examples of real-life identity, branding,
and signage. The projects focus on the integration of graphic
design and architecture in a Danish context. Students will be
instructed as to how they can work in physical and digital
media, as they will be challenged to use these media in
each of their projects throughout the semester. The goal is
to further their ability to convey abstract concepts through
graphic and verbal communication.

Prerequisites

Prerequisites: Documented background in Fine Arts or Studio
Art, or completion of a course in drawing. Students are
strongly recommended to enroll in the lecture course ‘Danish
Design’.
