Course content
The course addresses design and design processes as a prerequisite to innovation in lighting design.
The students learn how proper design will meet and manage future challenges. They will be able to handle the uncomfortableness of ambiguity whilst seeking insight. They will learn how to trust the process to generate appropriate ideas and the stamina and courage to test and choose solutions that are new.
Completing the course, the students can navigate through the landscape of design theory, and choose, use, and apply the right perspective, models, approaches, and methods to handle future lightrelated challenges and capture and exploit potential in and outside the core area of lighting design.
