Illustrator

Zoran Popovici

The course we propose covers the theoretical introductory notions, wrapped up as practical exercises – logo design and flyer layout design, aimed to bring you to an intermediate level in regards to Illustrator knowledge.

  • Introduction in programme interface.
  • Notions regarding lines and shapes in Illustrator.
  • We start designing a logo.

  • Color, shapes and their interactions.
  • Layers.
  • We finish the drawing of a vectorial logo.

  • Layout, art boards, grid, external content, text.
  • Plotting.

  • We will work on the structure of a flyer.

Data Visualization

Andra Croitoriu & Răzvan Zamfira

Data visualization and information design are innovative tools that transformed modern design, journalism, social sciences and architecture in recent years. Through the visual exploration of data we can discover and communicate new things regarding society, the urban environment and even ourselves. We will go through the entire process of designing a visual story by combining theory, practice as well as and inspiring examples.

Data Visualisation - a new language for visual communication 

  • What is data visualisation?
  • Visualising information. A brief history.
  • Data visualization and contemporary design
  • What will you learn during this course?

  • How to structure a research question
  • How/ where can we find & collect data?
  • Your personal data visualization project. Choosing a subject, asking (the right) questions and collecting data.

Archicad vs Autocad

Zoran Popovici

The new kid on the block of BIM vs the old dog of CAD.
The class explores the advantages of using each of the proposed software in a comparative way.

  • 2D drawing in Autocad – why and how we draw a 2D project.

  • How a 2D graph becomes a 3D schematic model – in Autocad as well, because even though it does not seem like it, 3D modelling is accessible in this programme.

  • Archicad – what does BIM mean and is it helpful?

  • Complex shapes in Archicad and how we can visualize and export the 3D drawing from Archicad.
