Abstract

Design is a project discipline aimed to specify the characteristics of systems of practical use and systems of visual messages, optimizing its relationship with the human being. The conventions usually referred to as the culture of a human group establish a context for the deployment of any design decision-making process, whose starting point is the identification and definition of a problem to solve. Based on a university pedagogical experience, the way to train future design professionals is analyzed so that they can achieve the necessary autonomy to generate novel solutions to problems with little or no background; orienting their training towards overcoming the routine application of pre-existing conventional solutions.
