Would you make a good designer? Designing is exciting, creative and sometimes quite challenging. Every designer needs a range of skills: observing, sketching, thinking, feeling and imagining. During this guided tour, your class steps into the world of design and discovers what it takes to become a designer.
Every design begins with a good idea. But where do ideas come from? Designing means experimenting, testing unusual materials and letting your imagination run free. Pupils are encouraged to explore, create and discover the designer within themselves.
Good luck on your journey to becoming a designer!
