An Examination of CAD Use in Two Interior Design Programs from the Perspectives of Curriculum and Instructors

Pages : 380
Book Description
The overall purpose of this study was to examine the nature of curriculum in college-level interior design programs, explore computer-aided design's (CAD) place in these curricula, and examine pedagogy used to teach CAD in these programs. Specifically, the objectives of this study were to better understand (a) the nature of college-level interior design programs with regard to curricular conceptions, (b) how interior design programs integrate CAD into the curriculum, and (c) how interior design instructors adopt and integrate CAD into their teaching practices. A qualitative research methodology using case study design was used. Data at two college-level interior design programs were collected using document analysis and interviews with six interior design instructors, three from each institution. Previous studies (Hill & Anning, 2001b) examined and identified how other design fields such as graphic, engineering, architectural, and apparel design practice the design process. However, there is little research found on how interior designers practice design and their profession, or how they use CAD in design. Therefore, this research contributes to the literature on how interior design professionals design using CAD programs and more specifically how they incorporate AutoCAD software in their professional design practice and in their teaching of interior design curriculum. Findings revealed that participants referred to their own professional practice to conceptualize and teach the design process. The phases of the design process described by each instructor were context-specific to a design project and their use of CAD in the design process depended on their preferences, skills, abilities, and the context of their professional practice. Findings also revealed that CAD is an important tool in the field of interior design. Even though CAD may inhibit an interior design students' creativity, it can save time, document drawings, and assist in better coordination with other professionals in the workforce. To enhance interior design students' skills, it is recommended that CAD courses be placed at the early courses of an interior design curriculum concurrently with manual drafting courses. This research provides useful information for future interior design instructors and CAD curriculum planning.

A first sketch of Computer Aided Ideation
Author: Philip Ekströmer

ISBN: 9179299490
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
Even though Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools have changed the way designers work in most parts of the design process, designers still mostly use pen-and-paper sketching when generating design ideas. Previous studies exploring the use of CAD tools for design ideation have concluded that the tools available at the time did not support reflective conversation, serendipitous interpretation and creativity, making them unsuited for design ideation. However, many of these studies used tools now considered obsolete, implying that the conclusions might no longer be valid. With the variety and capabilities of current CAD tools, there is an opportunity for a new exploration of CAD tools in design ideation. The aim of this licentiate thesis was to explore the use of CAD tools as externalization media in design ideation, what effect this has on the ideation process and how CAD tools might support design ideation. To this end, the thesis explored the use of CAD tools in design ideation in four studies. The first study consisted of a literature review on the strengths and weaknesses of sketches and CAD tools and a focus group discussion with three design experts. The second study compared master theses to explore how design representations used in the design process affect the breadth of design space exploration. The third study was a case study with two cases featuring the use of game engines and Virtual Reality for automotive lighting design and the fourth study compared the workflow in VR-sketching and pen-and- paper sketching. The results of the studies in this thesis suggest that the notion that CAD tools are not useful for design ideation is no longer true. Based on expert evaluations and case studies, this thesis concludes that there are several opportunities for the use of CAD tools in design ideation. This is certainly true in design fields where it is difficult to make sketches. The potential strengths of using CAD tools for design ideation includes the ability to design in full scale and the ability to perform instantaneous transform operations, such as scaling and deforming. However, the ability to instantly undo in CAD tools has been identified as both a potential strength and potential a weakness for design ideation. While being able to rapidly undo mistakes could be beneficial to the ideation process, achieving a faster workflow with less time redoing and more time working on creating, this might also result in fewer opportunities for reinterpretation. The conclusions in this thesis provide arguments for the use of CAD tools in design ideation, which could lead to new ways of generating, working with and thinking about design ideas. The findings also act as a stepping stone for further studies in the area of Computer Aided Ideation.

Study of Undergraduate Interior Design Student Outcomes Compared to Industry Professional Expectations
Author: Rachel Lantz
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Interior design undergraduate programs must continually address current software available as drafting and modeling platforms. In addition to preparing students to successfully use these programs, educators also have to consider the creative design process and accreditation standards set to ensure students complete their undergraduate degree prepared for a career in interior design. A concern many design faculty share is what technology, including hardware, software, and apps to feature and how to properly implement those technologies into the design curriculum. This research project aims to review and evaluate criteria for interior design student work to determine if the outcomes match expectations of practicing design professionals. The objective is to rank which skills are most important for students to develop and display in portfolios. The resulting data may help design educators in the planning of future curriculum standards, specifically how technology training is best balanced with other skills needed for emerging interior designers.

Book Description
"The interior design professional identity has long been a topic of conversation and debate, yet little research has been done to substantiate the discussion. With a lack of data identifying the identity perceptions, as related to the commercial and residential interior design fields, this study addressed quantifying the measurable and comparative values associated with each field. The study followed a quantitative research method; specifically using survey design. A questionnaire was created to specifically address the research questions. The instrument used to conduct the survey was SurveyGold8. The survey was distributed to the sample population via email and interior design social media pages. Seventy nine respondents, comprised of commercial and residential designers, industry affiliates, interior design educators and interior design students, took the 214 question survey. The researcher anticipated that there was a perceived industry divided, which the survey data confirmed. The data also showed through comparative analysis that the industry does have a perceived hierarchical value that sets commercial design above residential design by educational expectations, technology, skill levels, and titles." -- Abstract.
