4.141/4.142 How to Design (Almost) Anything

W 2-5:00pm
Rm: 7-434

Course Staff & Presenters:
Skylar Tibbits, Justin Lavallee, Nathan Melenbrink, Jonathan Grinham
TA: Athina Papadopoulou

What is Design and what are the core principles to become a designer? How to Design (almost) Anything is not just a class on design tools or software, rather it aims to demystify Design by taking a weekly tour through fundamental design principles and practices. Seeing, Sketching, Storytelling, Prototyping, Performing are just a few of the weekly topics.

With a diverse group of presentations covering each of the topics, students will take a deep-dive into design through lectures, hands-on labs and weekly assignments. As compared to a design studio, this one-semester technique-based class is for graduate or undergraduate students without a design background to enable more effective collaboration with designers and the ability to apply the foundations of design to any discipline.
