| Outline and Purpose of the Course | Based on human visual perception in the living environment, lectures are given on fundamental concepts of visual environment design. Additionally, the basic matters and latest trends of related illuminating and color engineering will be explained. Students’ presentations and class discussions will be adopted in order to obtain proficiency in understanding. | |||
| Course Goals | Understanding the human visual perception in the living environment, and being able to consider the problem of the visual environment from the basics by applying knowledge, such as visual perception, illuminating engineering, color engineering. Additionally, acquiring the knowledge and the fundamental concept for designing a visual environment that is suitable for human beings. | |||
