Today being material-minded is an integral part of the design process. Designers are required to understand how materials impact the design process from start to finish. Students will conduct in-depth research to explore the latest advances in materials, looking at current and future possibilities in industry and craft applications. How can material innovation influence design and making? Students will be challenged to design and create a product or line of products with a focus on innovative use of materials. Collaborating with industry experts in a range of sectors, they will demonstrate their insight into the material category and explore current as well as traditional techniques. In line with consumer choices being more eco-minded, and an interest in the impact of materials on the environment and society, students will also have the opportunity to focus on smart and sustainable materials, as well as the concept of repurposing.
