Foundation Vision

The Foundation program is designed to evolve perception and understanding of design as multi-disciplinary relationship with environment, culture and human senses. Based on the pedagogy of “Learning by doing and playing”, part of this discovery is the excitement of learning new ways of seeing the world. By providing direction, stimuli, facilities and experience to foster creativity, the program aims to harness intellectual potential of each individual to discover their own identity.
