IAED 1105 - Basic of Interior Design

• To introduce students to the foundational elements and principles of design, emphasizing their interaction in creating effective visual compositions.• To provide students with a comprehensive understanding of Gestalt principles and how they enhance the perception and organization of design.• To develop students' ability to apply both design and Gestalt principles in practical tasks, enabling them to solve design problems creatively.• To help students explore the transition from 2D design to low-relief compositions, emphasizing depth, space, and figure-ground relationships.• To build a strong design vocabulary that enables students to articulate and critique visual compositions, both verbally and in writing.

This course introduces students to the foundational elements and principles of design, with an emphasis on how design elements interact to create balanced, unified compositions. Students will explore Gestalt principles of visual perception, such as proximity, similarity, figure-ground, and continuity, and how they enhance the understanding and application of design principles. Through a series of hands-on practice exercises and reflective assignments, students will learn to create compositions that are visually compelling and conceptually sound. The course will also guide students through the process of transitioning from 2D compositions to low-relief work, where depth and spatial relationships play a crucial role. Group critiques and peer feedback will encourage critical thinking and collaborative learning.

Violations of scholastic honesty include, but are not limited to cheating, plagiarizing, fabricating information or citations, facilitating acts of dishonesty by others, having unauthorized possession of examinations, submitting work of another person or work previously used without informing the instructor, or tampering with the academic work of other students. Any for of scholastic dishonesty is a serious academic violation and will result in a disciplinary action.Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI):Students are permitted to use artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT, Grammarly, etc.) for grammar correction and academic writing improvement throughout their work. However, AI-generated original content (e.g., analysis, paragraph writing, conceptual description, etc.) must not exceed 20% of the submitted material.In any case where AI tools are used, students are required to include a clear declaration within the assignment/report/submission. This declaration must include the name of the AI tool/model used, the specific purpose, and a brief explanation of how it contributed to the work.Example declaration:"I used ChatGPT-4 for proofreading and restructuring the introductory paragraph."Failure to declare the use of AI tools when applied will be treated as a violation of academic integrity and plagiarism policies and may result in disciplinary action.
