Explore and apply creative design methodology to interior space

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit supports the attainment of skills and knowledge required to observe and analyse a range of complex spatial typologies, manipulate 3-D space and form applying the elements and principles of design and resolve interior space applying the elements and principles of design.

This unit covers employability skills in initiative and enterprise and problem solving to apply design principles to form and space in order to meet brief requirements. Communication skills are used to convey design solution and self management and learning skills are applied to assess and reflect on own design skills and identify areas for improvement.

This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to manipulate 3-D interior space and form applying the elements and principles of design in response to a brief.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

Employability Skills

This unit contains employability skills.



Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Apply design elements and principles to complex 3-D form and interior space

Manipulate the elements and principles of design

Use conceptual models and other 3-D and spatial visualisation techniques

Observe and analyse the way complex spaces are configured and arranged and apply this to resolving interior design problems

Explore, evaluate and refine design solutions

Communicate design ideas

Context of and specific resources for assessment

The application of competency is to be assessed in the workplace or realistically simulated workplace

Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints

Assessment of essential underpinning knowledge, other than confirmatory questions, will usually be conducted in an off-site context

Assessment is to comply with relevant regulatory or Australian Standards requirements

The following resources should be made available:

workplace location or simulated workplace

materials and equipment relevant to exploring and applying creative design methodologies to interior space

specifications and work instructions

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the Furnishing Industry Training Package

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application

Assessment may be applied under project related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

observing and comparing 3-D spaces

understanding and applying the elements and principles of design when organising 3-D space

creativity

innovation

research and critical evaluation of existing spaces

presenting design ideas

carrying out work according to OHS practices

Required knowledge

State or Territory OHS legislation, regulations, standards and codes of practice relevant to the full range of processes for applying creative methodologies

organisational and site standards, requirements, policies and procedures for applying creative methodologies

elements and principles of design

interrelationship of forms in space

concept of space

uses of objects and forms

interior elements

space, volume and proportion and their application to interior design

spatial concepts such as illusion, e.g. Trompe d'l oeil

relationship of objects in space

methods of interpreting space

evidence of design process and progression of ideas

environmental protection considerations for interior design

established communication channels and protocols

problem identification and resolution techniques

design communication techniques

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Spatial typology

may include but not be limited to voids, apertures, thresholds, atriums, vertical and horizontal circulation systems, public spaces, multi level spaces, mezzanines, transitional spaces staircases, ceiling planes

Spatial arrangements and organising systems

may include but not be limited to xis, grids, lineal arrangements, centralised arrangements, nested spaces, modular systems, hierarchical systems, repetition structures

Elements and principles of design

may include but not be limited to balance, similarity, texture, contrast, size, ground, volume, composition, orientation, form, structure, 2-D space, position, proportion, 3-D space, repetition, scale, line, rhythm, pattern, point, symmetry, tone and plane

Communication methods

may include but not be limited to diagrams, mind mapping, 3-D sketching, conceptual sketches, collage finished art work photomontage, conceptual models finished models, block diagrams, charts, bubble diagrams and flow charts

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
