Prompt
Designers represent their ideas through many different means: drawings, photographs, renderings, scale models, prototypes, and more. Each method presents specific advantages for highlighting different aspects of the concept and proposed execution.
In this assignment, we will learn about different types of diagrams, and how we can use each one to further communicate the ideas of your project.
Review the presentation above to learn about the types of diagrams used by designers to communicate their ideas. Then you will create a Technical Diagram. As you create your diagram, consider how each one will highlight a different aspect of your idea. These diagrams should be useful tools for others to understand your idea.
Keep in mind that these diagrams will be shared in your final presentation, so take care to make them clean and easily understandable.
