Drawing is a powerful tool that designers use to explore, represent and develop their design ideas into concepts. When we represent ideas throughout the design process, we use visualisation tools and techniques such as schematic sketching, thumbnail sketching, ideation sketching and illustration sketching.

 In this learning lab you will explore a variety of drawing visualisation techniques that you can use in your design process. 

Learning Goals:

• Understand the purpose of drawing in the design process
• Explore design drawings of products, services and environments
• Analyse different drawing styles, how they are applicable to different design disciplines and stages of the design process
• Decide how to differentiate between critical and non-critical elements when representing ideas.
