Creative Construction
Spring 2025
Taught By: Faculty TBA
Section: A

CRN: 11303

Credits: 3

This course is designed to push students beyond the basics of pattern cutting and encourage the development of their own methodologies. By beginning with non-garment based work, the students can explore fashion concepts and design practice outside the constraints of collection building. Emphasis will be given to understanding how to incorporate the foundations of pattern making with experimental techniques to reach places that can only be found through exploratory processes. Students will learn to answer construction questions that arise when making garments that are not based on traditional techniques.

Open to: All University undergraduate degree students. Pre-requisite(s): PUFD 2240 Creative Technical Studio 1, PAFD 1110 Technical Studio, or PSOF 1100 Cut, Sew & Make. Please note: This course is equivalent to PUFD 2120 Creative Construction and may not be repeated for credit.
