Studio of Graphic Design and Multimedia
About AGD+M
Since 1998 Studio of Graphic Design and Multimedia is dedicated to connect studies of informatics and graphic design. Structured curriculum corresponds with the idea of applied informatics as human centered, thus fulfills the mission of the university as the institution which is traditionally oriented to humanistic disciplines.
Our focus is to teach students principles of designing in the field of graphic design with the inclusion of other related fields such as digital design, animation, programming, creative work etc. Students are free to combine creative strategies to develop their own styles. Our students are well equiped work on interdisciplinary projects in their future carriers.
History
The idea of establishing of the Studio of Graphic Design and Multimedia was conceived by doc. V. Švalbach and doc. Jiří Eliška who proposed to add it to the already running courses of Art and Informatics taught by prof. Ivo Serba. New courses and staff were added such as Introduction to Visual Communication, Photography, Plain-Air, Evening Drawing etc. No Name Gallery was established where students and professionals were presented their work. Unfortunately this gallery ceased to exist due to the new development of the faculty building. After doc. Švalbach left, Helena Lukášová took over the AGD+M. New courses were opened: Programming of Generative Design, Concept and Intermedia, Graphic Design Project Course, Motion design.
