Description (ECIAD)

This course will cover part design for mass production and prototyped output on platforms such as CNC and 3D printer. Projects will focus on designing and fitting complex plastic parts in CAD, followed by robust output using rapid prototyping, as well as computer rendering techniques to produce final detail renderings and in-context images. Critical awareness of sustainability is brought about through investigation into the environmental impact and role of plastics, along with sustainable design strategies relevant to part design.
