Design

draw ideas, follow the design process 
The design process: Develop a project from your ideas that solves a need or problem. Draw your ideas. Research similar ideas. Take inspiration from others. Use 2D + 3D digital technologies to visualise your ideas. Get feedback from others throughout the project. Make considered changes to refine your project to be fit for purpose. Present your final idea to others for feedback.


SNAKE TOWER EXAMPLE PROJECT
This example project shows the iterative design process with a variety of drawings, physical models + 3D models to create digital media content of the ideas. 
​
The project idea is to design a transportable observation tower to safely watch animals in the wild inspired by snakes.
