Graphical Design Skills

 

Designing is the act of working out the form of something (as by making a sketch or outline or plan). The best way to communicate design in a design process is to be able to draw your ideas. In partnership with Design Nuts and Splat 3D we have developed some resources so that students can learn how to communicate design ideas effectively. 

The use of the Splat 3D tool available from https://splat3d.com/shop is a great way to get students producing design drawings of a high standard in a matter of minutes. There are also over 70 instructional videos available from the splat 3D website and a range of teaching and learning resources.
