1. international CEEPUS Winter School DESIGN WEEK 2012

The Winter School Design Week presents an introduction to the series of fashion weeks, which combine scientific and artistic disciplines and bring together the creativities of students from different universities and countries. The students were confronted in lectures and workshops with the theoretical and practical aspects of design, with the modern fashion and trends of product development. Here, idea development was of crucial importance, as well as its 2D and 3D visual interpretations, realised thanks to modern digital technologies.

2. international CEEPUS Winter School DESIGN WEEK 2013

Design as a driving force towards people-centred innovation was a topic that linked together the contents of the 2nd international Winter School. The activities were focused on the development of intelligent clothing, following the development of a new-generation of clothing, as well as on the search for traditional values of clothing and their cultural heritages. Development of ideas was crucial for all the concepts, both in the designing of paper silhouettes, designing of textiles and clothing, as well as in the search for intelligent functions of clothing and fashion accessories.
