The objectives of this course are for students to develop a
better understanding of how companies operate based on a branded
image, how to create interesting and innovative designs with a
specific end use in mind, and how to form these designs using
certain technical parameters and production methods. 

Discussion about various design principles regarding repeating
pattern, use of material, and color will be represented through
slide lectures and class discussions.

Students will explore, independently, various textile techniques
learned throughout their school career to arrive at final design
ideas. Therefore, open ended experimentation and exploration is
encouraged and imperative.
