Course description
Clients and Culture: This course starts with the development of an aspirational brief that accurately registers the culture and needs of existing and /or potential users. Skills are developed in the respectful apprehension of cultural and physical diversity and in the effective deployment of the budget through clever planning and programming. Methods of communication that are accessible to lay audiences and which convey experiential qualities are employed at all stages of the design process.
