Learning outcomes |
- Deepening and integration of previous learning, namely regarding the design process.
- Know how to establish the relationships of operative, structural and ergonomic functionality in the design of a space with minimal habitability of industrial production.
- Understand the issues of ergonomic functionality and expressive qualities that design, and user objects establish between themselves at different scales and in a minimum space.
- Know how to combine the formal and symbolic plastic expression of the different materials with their structural and cultural constraints.
- Know how to apply notions of sustainability in relation to the life cycle of materials.
- Know how to apply notions of natural air conditioning in minimal closed spaces in different environmental contexts.
- Know how to operate the various stages of development of a design piece from the initial concept to its final prototype.

Syllabus |
- Deepening the entire design process in the development of a project of high complexity and scale.
- Functional operability of a minimum space: structure, ergonomics, mobility and habitability.
- Functional operability of objects in minimal space conditions: ergonomics and the relationship of the body with different objects and space scales.
- Plastic expression, emotional design, structure, materiality and scale relation: potential of structural and expressive qualities at different scales.
- Modulation, standardization, technologies and sustainability of the product life cycle.
- Principles of passive air conditioning and environmental thermal comfort in relation to local geographic conditions
- Application of a design methodology for an industrial design product hierarchized in several stages

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
• Working students must contact the course coordinator within the first two weeks to schedule a specific course. Failure to do so will result in a failing grade due to absence;
• Semester attendance requirements: mandatory attendance of 80% of classes; participation in and submission of all assessment phases;
• Minimum grade to take the exam: 7 points;
• Students/groups with incomplete final submissions will be required to take the exam, regardless of the quality of the proposal;
• Class participation: 10% of the grade.
• Students will be evaluated by a panel composed of the 2 professors who will consider the following evaluation factors:
class participation, critical thinking and openness to implementing suggestions; research on the topic, rigor,
creativity, quality of sketching in the proposal demonstration, quality of technical drawing (views, sections and details), quality of models and rendering.
