A project-oriented type of thought is very important for the profession of a designer. The article describes project-oriented thought as the chief element of its activity. Students studying design constantly polish their skills in practice when creating tutorial design projects and thereby develop project-oriented thought. Academic disciplines of the artistic cycle are directed at the development of project-oriented thought, and they include such an academic discipline as calligraphy. Knowledge, proficiency and skills developed by calligraphy are revealed by means of research. The article produces a complex structure of project-oriented thought based on Siegfried Begenau’s work and an analogy from the perspective of mastering calligraphy. On the basis of this analogy lies the principle of creation of a calligraphic work, from the idea to its realization. Study of calligraphic rules of writing develops manual dexterity, creativity and imagination and provides discipline, which is an important trait of the designer’s profession. Perfection of calligraphic elements and fonts in practice becomes conducive to elaboration of project-oriented thought. The conclusion is also arrived at that projectoriented thought is developed among designers faster after they undergo studies of a basic course of calligraphy.
