Through qualitative research, visual language components were mapped in the results of packaging projects in the Technical Course in Visual Communication at Senac-SP, seeking to identify and analyze visual culture aspects expressed in the projects. To this end, the corpus was sys­tematized and field observations analyzed, in addition to creating graphic and parametric analysis matrices. A relatively timid exploration of the full range of expressive design resources was noted, such as adoption of quite conventional vi­sual patterns. In semantic terms, a significant portion of the compositions evoked informality, reflecting the students’ personal experiences. Results of such exer­cises seem, then, to mirror students’ aesthetic preferences, repertoires and values, thus characterizing, even if only in part, the graphic memory of the Technical Course in Visual Communication at Senac-SP in 2015 and the idiosyncratic visual culture of that generation of students in that specific context.</p>}, number={2}, journal={DAT Journal}, author={Beatriz Saraiva Dinelli, Maria and Portugal do Nascimento, Luís Cláudio}, year={2020}, month={Jun.}, pages={174–187} }
