Design, taught as full courses

Size, contrast and weight — how a page tells the eye what to read first, and what happens when everything shouts at once.

Where things live, what they are called, and whether anybody can find them — with four research methods that each cost an afternoon.

Every screen is a document you read or a tool you operate. Knowing which one it is decides how it behaves in the hand.

From the shape of a single letter to a type system that performs on the page and the screen.

Read colour as three dials, then wield it — value, contrast, palettes, and a whole system by role.

When a design confuses or trips you, it’s the design’s fault, not yours — six felt modules that prove it.

Six ways the eye groups raw light into objects, groups and meaning — before you ever decide to look.

From one base unit to a full scaffold — spacing, alignment, grids, their families, the responsive bend, and the composition capstone.

An app is a stage you operate, not a page you read — the stage, stability, reach, glance, density, and the contract that grades all five.

The pixels behind the design — formats and compression, the ten core tasks, real production workflows, and how to fix anything that breaks.

The distance between the design that was approved and the page that actually shipped — where that gap opens, and what keeps widening it.

Every moving thing on a screen is either telling somebody something or getting in their way — the job test, and the two gates it has to pass.
