WHAT IS DICE
DICE is a structured innovation-education system for learners Aged 5–18, including four design streams: Fashion design, Digital & Graphic design, Architectural design, and Creative Coding. Through a structured, age-appropriate learning path, students start with basic aesthetic awareness and gradually develop core abilities such as breaking down problems, understanding needs, and creating practical solutions. Along the way, they build a professional portfolio and gain real project experience, learning to apply design skills to everyday challenges in the real world.
