Is design meant to be learnt in a classroom or is it a skill that has to be in a workshop? How does a student go about learning design?

Answer (1)

It's a combination of both because you are not just learning a skill. Design is the original liberal education because to be a designer, you have to understand people. You have to understand ergonomics, society, politics and at the same time, you have to be able to work with soft wares so there are lab and studio classes also and there is theory but even theory is not about just mugging up for an exam. It's about understanding the context and applying the context into the projects.
