Research Methodology: The importance and usefulness of well founded research, methodology and the application of theoretical knowledge into practice. A real life situation is given which students should form their own research and research conclusions in order to aid their design solutions. Experimentation with design elements in two dimensional drawings: Line, texture, colour, light. Three-dimensional model for visualizing the form, shape, volume and space. Emphasis is given on materials for both interior and exterior design solutions. Presentation Skills: A Development of presentation skills from interior design 1 allows students to orally communicate ideas and research findings.
