Use the characteristics of a design movement or era to inform own design ideas
Use the characteristics of a design movement or era to inform own design ideas
You need to pick a design movement or era (like Modernism, Bauhaus, or the 1960s), study how its design characteristics work, and then use what you've learned to create your own design ideas. Your work should show a clear link between the historical movement and the new designs you come up with.
You describe design elements and social factors from a movement or era, and create design ideas that show you've used some of those characteristics.
You explain the design elements that define the movement or era, and your design ideas clearly demonstrate how you've deliberately linked the movement's characteristics to your own work.
Your design ideas show that you've deeply understood and woven the movement's characteristics into your own designs in a sophisticated, natural way.
