[04] From studio to teaching

One project. Connected decisions.

01

Project thinking

Concept and spatial decisions are reasoned through before modelling begins. Participants learn to explain both what they do and why.

02

A systematic BIM workflow

The model, plans, sections, elevations and documentation develop as connected parts of a single project.

03

Individual feedback

Projects are discussed in stages. Feedback addresses technical accuracy, the reasoning behind decisions and the clarity of the presentation.

[05] Mentorship

From explanation to application and independent work.

Online and in-person sessions support the steady development of each project. A private participant channel helps admitted participants address project questions between sessions.

Teaching consists of 2 online sessions and 1 in-person session each week. Exact days and times are determined after the group is formed and shared privately only with admitted participants.
