##The Principles of Design Applied to Code.

“Design is a human ritual of understanding.” ― Maggie Macnab, Design by Nature: Using Universal Forms and Principles in Design

###Part 1: Lecture- The Principles of Design Defined. (~25 min)

  • Please take note any time you hear about a Principle that you think applies to the back-end as well as the front.

###Part 2: Discussion- Do the Principles apply to the back-end as well as the front? How? (~10-20 min)

  • We'll use your notes as a jumping off point.

###Part 3: Group Critique. (~Remaining time)

  • We'll discuss examples of web and app design using the terminolgy we've learned.
  • Introduce the theory and practice of formal critique.
  • Student's are invited to bring works- of their own, or any that interest them, to be critiqued.
  • Students can submit links to sites or repos here (instructions provided) or just show up with something. (not required).
  • We'll time-box the critiques to assure everyone gets a fair shake, and if time remains, we'll dicuss some of the submissions to this site- CSS Garden.
  • We'll reserve a few minutes at the end of the session to discuss whether there's any interest in meeting again.
