3DGL104 Designing in the Glass Studio:An Exploration of Form, Lighting,Production Design and Sculptural Glass 3cr


“Designing in the Glass Studio” is a
comprehensive exploration of the use of glass in
the world of product design, architecture and
fine art. Students will learn how to develop a
design from conception to finished product and
will be involved at every stage of fabrication.
Drafting, model-making and prototyping will be
the tools we use to navigate our designs from
initial concept to finished product.  The
technical aspects of the course will cover
chandelier design, mold making for multiples,
color and texture application, rigging,
installation, custom fabrication and how to
develop a product line.  Students will also learn
client relation skills, contract negotiation,
advertising development, product branding and
marketing skills.

This course is perfect for students with a
drafting or design background that are interested
in experimenting with glass and pursuing
practical applications for their designs. This
course is designed both for intermediate
glassblowers and students with no prior glass
experience.
