The Apple iPad is the sketchbook of the digital age. It offers a range of tools and apps comparable to the analog sketchbook and pens, pencils, watercolors, erasers and charcoals of the designer's toolbox and allows you to augment your analog skills for an effective blend of digital and analog design techniques and approaches.
The design process relies heavily on iteration, particularly in the early phases of looking at a range of ideas in a sketch format. With the iPad, you are able to work in layers, just as you would with layers of tracing paper, to build up a record of your design sketch ideas. With the tools and techniques taught in this course, your iPad becomes a portable design studio that you can take wherever you want. You also get training in mobile design and drawing experience and expression that can help prepare you for the active and ever-changing—and mobile—profession of interior design and interior architecture.
