By its very nature it is interdisciplinary as it encompasses a variety of fields including architecture, geography, urban planning, park planning, landscape architecture, product design, alternative building methods and sustainability. Political, economic, and cultural design influences are considered as this course covers the elements, principles, and processes of visual design as a foundation for environmental design. Emphasis is on the development of creativity and skills through the application of theory and techniques in a series of two - and three-dimensional design projects as applied to envi ronmental design fields and review of contemporary and historical environmental design topics.
