The following project image is a presentation from one of the 3rd year students I worked with in their 1st semester of their 3rd year here in Seoul.
The course is Industrial Design 2. They are challenged to tie together many of the skill sets they have been working on for the past 3 years. Design brief grocking, user research, mood boarding, concept sketching, 3D CAD, 3D printing, keyshot rendering, UX and final wall presentation/project storytelling. Their work must communicate with: other designers, marketers, engineers and manufacturing team members, and must apply the provided UX app controlled LED technology that is included in the brief. Formal branding as a skillset is introduced to the curriculum in the following semester, but students get a taste in this project with required preliminary UX design wire frames.
