Product sketching tools

The aim is to teach several design tools in a transversal manner to create, develop and submit any kind of design project. By sketching, and digital techniques such as Photoshop and Rhino3D, we can make a fast, efficient and knowledgeable, impact presentations. We will study both simple shapes to complex design objects such as vehicles. Through 5 modules we will see different phases of the design process with emphasis on sketch through various techniques of representation until a final presentation.
