You will learn core theoretical and technical knowledge to support evidence-based design, and inclusive and sustainable practice. Designers require an understanding of how people and the built environment engage physically and psychosocially and existentially if they are to help produce individually meaningful and socially responsive environments. They also require skills to explore person-environment interactions relevant to practice-based projects. This unit builds on introductory understandings of the nature of human engagement and inhabitation and, in so doing, prepares you to consolidate your design knowledge and skills.","title-full":"ABB202 Design Psychology","title-short":"Design Psychology","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=ABB202&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=ABB202","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=ABB202"},"year":2025,"years":[2025]}
