– Students will develop their creativity and invention as well as their rational thinking. Searching and finding a design topic that would bring fulfillment and accompany the students throughout the whole process, is connected with important exploration of individual creative capacity and the ability to use it rationally.
– Students will get experience with detailed focussing in the design process with a strong accent on the feasibility of the result.
– Students will come across particular questions during the design process and will look for concrete and practical answers which will be related to the realisation, material and real use of the designed work.
– Students will be forced to harmonise the phantasy and trickiness of free assignment with the feasibility of the practical result of their design process.
– Students will consolidate their knowledge of forming graphical outcomes – posters and their required features as work with type fonts, text and graphical elements.

The consultations frame the evolution moments in the process of design, and help students to clarify, formulate and develop the design. The course enables students to gain knowledge, research and analysis of professions related to the selected topic and lead them to the application of the knowledge in a creative way. Students are led to cultivated expression and encouraged to original resulting outcomes in terms of content as well as art and graphical form.

The aim of the course is to develop cognitive processes of the students in master's degree and to point students to more detailed focusing in the design process with a strong accent on creativity and aesthetics in relation to rational thinking. Students work on a design which is supposed to be close to or potentially realisation.

The introductory lecture and consultations of design development are compulsory. The rhythm and frequency of consultations are adapted to suit the topic as agreed with the teacher, but there always must be these phases: selection and approval of topic by the teacher, sketches and research, development of individual project, design representation - visualisation or drawing, model and photo etc., definition of the content and character and graphical form of the poster, review of all required features of the project and poster, submission.
In the case of a student's apology and with approval of the subject guarantor, personal attendance may be substituted with online attendance in the classes.
