Once upon a time there was no alphabet, only numbers… Morris Lessmore comes an alphabet tale extraordinaire! Separate recommendations for academic institution in developing nations are proposed.From the team who brought you The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. This framework outlines the relationship of design with the constituents of the economy. A framework based on this approach is proposed. The paper further discusses the capabilities approach and the concept of external capabilities. This paper explores the rationale and objectives of developing nation’s design policies, the way design is adopted by the business organisations and the use of design in the social sector. Therefore, even though design is already making inroads in the developing economies, a serious thought needs to be given to what role should design play in such scenario. However, the challenges and opportunities of developing nation are different from those of a developed economy. All the three sectors are important constituents of a nation’s economy. Commercially motivated Businesses see design as source of competitive advantage to innovate socially motivated organisations are increasingly using design thinking as holistic problem solving tool and governments are exploring how design make their systems and process effective. Design methods, design attitudes and approaches are being looked upon as tools to create and deliver sustained value. Keywords: Design Education, Color Education, Graphic Design, Color in Design, Methodĭesign is increasingly seen as a transformational power and basis for innovation. It presents the theoretical bases of the content of the course, the method exemplified in the program of theoretical and practical classes, and its interdisciplinarity with disciplines of projects, illustrated with works’ students developed in 2017. In order to present the method, the article initially addresses the issue of color in design projects, the history of classroom practices, as well as each method proposed since Bauhaus. The future designer becomes more confident in positioning himself/herself in front of the creative questions regarding the chromatic choices, supports, means and their interrelations in the project as a whole, as well as its repertoire and its capacity to justify its design decisions. This process has proved to be efficient both in terms of the results obtained in the proposed exercises and in the increase of the student’s capacity to elaborate researches, syntheses, visual syntactic analyzes, to understand and to assign meanings. The method challenges the student to discover and understand his subjectivity in order to place himself as an agent of color application in his projects, of the semantic values of color and to understanding his relationship with the support, static or in motion, exploring also the texture and color sonority. This article presents a method of teaching, developed and improved in the last 8 years, applied to the discipline of Theory and Practice of Color, in a bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design (São Paulo, Brazil). The identification of this last subjective variable as a substantial component in color teaching points out the need to rethink the educational processes of design. Disciplines that address such application tend to be controversial, since the teaching of color as a significant element of language is quite complex, because it deals with many variables, of both objective and subjective natures, among which is, mainly, the respect for subjectivity and creativity of the future designer.
The use of color as an informational and semantic element is a challenge in both design and communications courses.
