FaVU-M1PK-ZAcad. year: 2020/2021
Students attend studio lessons with bachelor students and participate actively. They work on semestral (or yearly) theme, with regard to their long-term individual project.
The studio statement is the axis of education in all years of study:
Every Wednesday you will be encouraged and led to find your own way of working.
We focus on discovering a role of today’s graphic designer.
We don’t give an easy guidelines “how to do it”.
You will analyze the assignments, take a stand on them and find solutions.
You will experience the pressure of one-day tasks and the enthusiasm of a completed long-term project.
We cooperate with czech and foreign lecturers and foreign students.
We are more moderators than teachers.
