Summer Study Abroad - Illustration

Graphic Design Communication students at Chelsea are stimulated by a passion for generating high-octane ideas, and work to develop the digital and technical skills needed to create innovative, directional concepts.

You will be encouraged to take on this level of design thinking as you study contemporary typographic design, developing a critical and creative approach, through the study of theoretical, practical and contextual concerns.

You will have the opportunity to explore and examine the demands of typography in its contemporary cultural context, looking at modes of communication and how typography and typographic design is generated, utilised and translated by the user.

You will be provided with a variety of study methods to enhance your learning, including group lectures, visits to solo projects and self-directed study.
