Welcome to the portfolio of projects and works by DN MADE Graphic Design students!
During their third year of training, DN MADE Graphic Design students must undertake a design project, whether personal or collective. Among the objectives:
The transmission The project ensures the longevity and excellence of skills, know-how, and knowledge transfer related to arts and design professions (craftsmanship, heritage knowledge, design methods).
The creation The project demonstrates the ability to define a research territory, the development of a student's own creative attitude, and the ability to collaborate with partners (analysis, needs assessment, collaborative creativity).
Innovation The project fits into a contemporary dynamic that is distanced from the history of crafts and design (exploratory and experimental dimension of the study, rooted in current cultural, artistic, technological, industrial, ethical, and societal innovation).
The partnership The project demonstrates an aptitude for a collective creative process (articulation of creative research in crafts and design linked to a real context, collaboration with external partners during the various phases of project development, association with other creators, and a co-creation approach).
Project communication and mediation In keeping with the student's approach and objectives.
