Kolding School of Design has a relatively small staff of regular teachers, and relies instead on guest teachers from art, industry and other educational institutions.
Teamwork and interdisciplinary projects are a characteristic of the school's education. The school co-operates extensively with other educational institutes in Denmark and abroad, with the City of Kolding, and with local industry. The school is located near design-driven companies such as LEGO and Bang & Olufsen.
While philosophy, art history and ethics are taught as part of the school's theory curriculum, the school's education is for the most part oriented towards craft and conceptual work.

Famous quotes containing the word method:
“In child rearing it would unquestionably be easier if a child were to do something because we say so. The authoritarian method does expedite things, but it does not produce independent functioning. If a child has not mastered the underlying principles of human interactions and merely conforms out of coercion or conditioning, he has no tools to use, no resources to apply in the next situation that confronts him.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“As a science of the unconscious it is a therapeutic method, in the grand style, a method overarching the individual case. Call this, if you choose, a poet’s utopia.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“... the one lesson in the ultimate triumph of any great actress has been to enforce the fact that a method all technique or a method all throes, is either one or the other inadequate, and often likely to work out in close proximity to the ludicrous.”
—Mrs. Leslie Carter (1862–1937)
