Specializing Course in JEWELLERY DESIGN, 3rd Edition
POLI.design, Consorzio del Politecnico di Milano, is organizing the first and only Specializing Course in Europe in Jewellery Design, the new specialization addressed to people who want to devote themselves to jewel planning, characterized in particular by design and by the evolution of aesthetic languages.
The faculty of the course is composed of high quality lecturers of Politecnico di Milano and Bocconi, who will deal with the following themes: jewellery materials; project culture; trends and new scenarios; gold market; distribution; retail and communication.
The course will tackle the gold project and its various aspects. The scheduled areas are five: Materials and Techniques; Culture and Criticism; Market, Project; Modelling and Prototyping. The course will start dealing with the materials and the techniques belonging to the jewellery tradition and then it will pass to those that belong to heterogeneous branches that are the modern challenge for designers. Then the course will analyze the different cultural interpretations that have been dedicated to jewellery during time, the outlining of the gold market and its main players and, in the end, the retail strategies and those of distribution and communication. After this critical analysis on jewels, the workshop will start: during it three International jewellery designers will work side by side with the students to define and characterize the projects. They will be realized thanks to the modelling and prototyping software Rhinoceros, an innovative system for modelling and jewellery prototyping that is one of the big advantages of the course.
