设计多元化的知识结构必将要求设计人员具有多元化的知识及信息获取方式。
Designing a diverse knowledge structure will inevitably require designers to have diverse knowledge and information acquisition methods.
第一步：从点、线、面的认识开始，学习掌握平面构成、色彩构成、立体构成、透视学等基础；我们需要具备客观的视觉经验，建立理性思维基础，掌握视觉的生理学规律，了解设计元素这一概念。
Step 1: Starting from understanding points, lines, and surfaces, learn and master the basics of plane composition, color composition, three-dimensional composition, perspective, and so on; We need to have objective visual experience, establish a rational thinking foundation, master the physiological laws of vision, and understand the concept of design elements.
第二步：你会画草图吗？1998年澳大利亚工业设计顾问委员会调查结果，设计专业毕业生应具备的10项技能第一位就是：“应有优秀的草图和徒手作画的能力，作为设计者应具备快而不拘谨的视觉图形表达能力，绘画艺术是设计的源泉，设计草图是思想的纸面形式，我们有理由相信，绘画是平面设计的基础，平面设计是设计的基础！”
Step 2: Can you sketch? The results of the 1998 Australian Industrial Design Advisory Board survey, The first of the 10 skills that design graduates should possess is: "Excellent sketching and freehand drawing ability. As a designer, one should have fast and unrestricted visual graphic expression ability. Painting art is the source of design, and design sketches are the paper form of ideas. We have reason to believe that painting is the foundation of graphic design, and graphic design is the foundation of design!"
第三步：你还缺少什么？缺少对传统课程的学习，如陶艺、版画、水彩、油画、摄影、书法、国画、黑白画等等，太多太多，你还是问问自己吧！不管如何这些课程将在不同层次上加强了你设计的动手能力、表现能力和审美能力，他们最关键的是让你明白什么是艺术，更重要的是你发现你自己的个性，但这也是一个长期的过程。
Step 3: What else are you missing? Lack of learning about traditional courses such as pottery, printmaking, watercolor, oil painting, photography, calligraphy, traditional Chinese painting, black and white painting, etc. There are too many, too many. You should still ask yourself! Anyway, these courses will enhance your hands-on, expressive, and aesthetic abilities in design at different levels. The most crucial thing is to help you understand what art is, and more importantly, to discover your own personality, but this is also a long-term process.
第四步：“我可以开始设计了吗”？当然不行，你要设计什么？正如你要开始玩游戏了，你了解游戏规则吗？不过你不用担心，你已经进入了专业自身的学习，同时也意味着你才刚刚开始，你将不折不挠，不浮躁不抱怨、务实的、实事求事的态度步入这一领域。
Step 4: "Can I start designing now?"? Of course not, what do you want to design? As you are about to start playing games, do you understand the rules of the game? However, you don't have to worry. You have already entered the field of professional learning, which also means that you have just started. You will enter this field with an indomitable, non impetuous, non complaining, pragmatic, and pragmatic attitude.
第五步：你能辨别设计的好坏，知道为什么吗？上一步通过对设计基础知识的学习，不知不觉你已经进入了设计的模仿阶段，为了向前我们必须回顾历史，既而从理论书籍的学习转变为向前辈及优秀设计师学习。这个阶段伴随着一个比较长期的一个过程，你的设计水平可能会很不稳定，你有时困惑、有时欣喜，伴随着大量的实践以及对设计整个运转流程逐渐掌握，开始向成熟设计师迈进。
Step 5: Can you distinguish between good and bad designs and know why? In the previous step, by learning the basic knowledge of design, you have unknowingly entered the stage of design imitation. In order to move forward, we must review history and shift from studying theoretical books to learning from predecessors and excellent designers. This stage is accompanied by a relatively long-term process, and your design level may be unstable. You may be confused at times and happy at times, but with a lot of practice and gradually mastering the entire design process, you begin to move towards a mature designer.
