Looking at the world in a creative way and then responding to it by exploring materials is the basis of 3D Design at Varndean College. The visual, tactile and structural possibilities that materials hold help to develop a solid and creative understanding of the design process. A large part of becoming a successful designer stems from your level of interest and intrigue with your surroundings. An active involvement in design and how it affects the world around you is essential to the creative development of a designer.
