This course provides a foundational study of human anatomy and body biology for textile and clothing design, focusing on the diverse spectrum of human body forms. The course will focus on bones, muscles, body systems, and how they vary across different body types, genders, and ages. Students will analyse the distinct muscular and skeletal structures between male, female, and child body types across different growth phases. A major part of the course will involve looking at soft tissue anatomy, including how fat is distributed in different ways (like android and gynoid types) and how obesity affects body shape and proportions. This knowledge empowers designers to create innovative, ergonomic, and comfortable apparel that respects anatomical diversity, ensuring superior fit and function for a wide range of body types.
