Your first project in the design course will be to select a design subject that will be presented in the classroom with a group of 4 to 5 fellow students. Here you will find information about the topics that you can choose from and information for preparing your presentation. It also contains a document that your team will have to complete and bring with you in our first real class room. The various design presentation will allow you to obtain a background in design history and actual design themes. During the classes, your professor will link these topics with one another and place them in their historical context.

Knowledge of cultural styling movements is indispensable for someone who likes to know more about product design. It is important to have knowledge and a feeling about what happened with previous artistic movements. Why did they become popular and why did they disappear? These preferences for aesthetics have a life-cycle. Knowing the past might help to foresee which style might last and which one is in a dangereous position of disappearing.

This subject in design is very actual and just great! Specific international conferences are organised on "design & emotion" by the Design and Emotion society and on "communicative product design" by the Nordcode network. For you this subject is important because by analysing the various messages, symbols and aesthetics in a product's design you can identify as a marketing executive what the product should express. You can also benchmark the product's expressions with those of competing products. This can be a valuable input from marketing into the product creation process, allowing the creation of successful products.
