Course Description

In Major 6, students develop an individual work proposal in consultation with academic staff. Experimental studio research informed by contemporary and/or historical precedents develops over the semester.  Critical reflection is further encouraged through discussion with staff and peers . Studio theory further consolidates each student's ability to articulate a contextual framework for their design practice.   OHS is approached professionally at this level. Students will develop, complete and exhibit a substantial body of design-related work.
