Year Two Summer Project

Hello all,

Over the summer period we have decided to give you a new project. We would like you to work on 50 Ideas…

…This should be as easy as Paris Hilton for second years, right? Just fill a sketchbook with as many ideas as possible – carry it around with you if you have to, you never know when an idea critter will strike. They can be as ‘off the wall’ as you like, but do have in mind that you may begin to pull from this sketchbook when developing your projects during the second year. It will be a very important foundation. All we need to see are sketches and annotations.

I would also like to remind you of the official Blogspot we have set up for you all, which has now been changed to – www.fdadesign.blogspot.com. We would like to encourage you more to use this area of the tinterweb throughout the year instead of hiding behind closed doors and being your normal, guarded selves. It is the perfect place to help each other out with research and even brainstorm ideas.

In the meantime, have a great summer and I look forward to seeing you all in September.

Regards,

Richard Johnson

Welcome Year One FdA

Hello all,

I’d like to welcome you to Year One of the FdA Design course and hope you are enjoying the weather so far. We’ve decided to send you a summer project to keep you company and hopefully give you a little something to discuss during induction week.

I would also like to introduce you to the official Blogspot we have set up for you – www.fdadesign.blogspot.com. We would like to encourage you to use this area of the tinterweb throughout the year. For now, it is the perfect place to introduce yourselves and hopefully help each other out with the project. Perhaps you’ll share ideas, research, or even some of the final pieces.


In the meantime, have a great summer and I look forward to meeting you all in September.
