I3 03 Design Industry

Summary for this section:

Design is a practice based on problem solving, aesthetics, materials and processes. It refers to professional design of work involving two dimensions and forms in space, which respond to a brief, and may relate to the design of digital media, graphics, illustrative work, industrial designs, events/exhibits, fashion, jewellery, fashion accessories, furniture, furnishing, interior or urban design.

This unit applies to individuals who need to source and apply knowledge on the design industry to support professional design practice and acknowledges the concept of a design industry and design as a discrete profession.


This section of Industry 3 contains four Learning Activities:
LA01 Constructive Feedback
LA02 Positions vacant
LA03 Trends in the design industry
LA04 Ethical & legal work practises in the design industry

Assessment Criteria:
Complete and combine all the above four Industry section Learning Activities into one Word document or Indesign PDF document, use headings for each. Save your file as ‘Design-Industry’.

My activity tasks can be viewed here.

'The activity work was very broad ranging and made me think of aspects of the industry I had not before, especially in regards to ethics and day-to-day working as a designer and the considerations and decisions that must be made and supported.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post'.
