Features: Modern design has entered a new stage, constantly evolving and innovating. In modern society, the demand for design is increasingly leaning toward the pursuit of perfect individuality. In this thriving market economy era, design encompasses many new concepts and cultures, highlighting that people are no longer satisfied with simple repetition and consumption of material life. While pursuing material abundance, they also yearn for deep cultural connotations. When it comes to design, people often mistakenly believe it is a unique privilege of designers. In reality, design should be an indispensable part of human life, with every material product designed and produced based on people's living needs. Of course, it also integrates people's spiritual values and orientations. Everyone has the right and potential to participate in design. Every successful product design expresses a shared creativity and tacit understanding between designers and the public. In real-world practice, designers are involved in countless design projects, such as environmental art design, interior design, fashion art design, advertising design, etc. Sometimes, they also participate in various social and cultural activities, such as artistic performances, public welfare campaigns, and more. These include both collective and individual actions, indicating that the philosophy of design has permeated every aspect of our lives. To enhance the design awareness and quality of the entire population, the mission of design education is even more significant. The continuous innovation and reform of design education in art colleges are currently a crucial research topic, with textbook compilation and research being the top priority. Without a comprehensive textbook system, the development of design education will be constrained, affecting the education and cultivation of design talent. Meanwhile, due to the increasing number of candidates applying to art colleges for design programs in recent years, there is a strong need for targeted, high-quality, and distinctive teaching materials. The re-publication of the "Introduction to Design Fundamentals Series," led by faculty from our college's design department and supported by teachers and design professionals from other provincial art colleges, is a highly commendable event with far-reaching impact and significance for the development and popularization of design education. It is hoped that the publication and distribution of this series will contribute to improving the quality of design education, meeting the needs of design enthusiasts, and enhancing the design awareness and skills of the public.
