This rigorous and accelerated course provides students the opportunity to integrate computer-aided design tools and applications to develop accessory collections and visual presentations. The course will cover fashion products such as handbags, belt buckles, hats, eyeglasses, zipper pulls and high heels. Rhinoceros 3D is a robust, versatile and intuitive 2D and 3D CAD software that enables you to turn your ideas into virtual prototypes ready for sampling. Rhino provides the tools and methods for taking advantage of new manufacturing technologies that enable the accessory design process to be more efficient, sustainable and cutting-edge. Through formulating and translating ideas through 2D and 3D making processes, students will learn how to develop concept drawings, from idea generation through to specs. 3D skills and practices within the context of the discipline through modeling basic forms are discussed. Upon completion of the course, students are ready for output to digital production hardware and will create rendering product images for portfolios. The emphasis is on innovation and enhanced exploration of design concepts. No previous experience with Rhino is necessary.
