[02] Professional directions

Not a detailed lesson list, but a complete project approach.

01

Project thinking and a systematic workflow

Decisions, relationships and project logic are structured as one coherent system.

02

Application on a real project

The approach is applied progressively within a real project process.

03

Documentation and presentation

The outcome is completed with a consistent, studio-ready professional presentation system.

[03] Program map

The project develops through four connected stages across 12 weeks.

This map shows the main project sequence rather than every individual lesson topic. Exact session days and assignments are shared with participants in advance.

  1. Stage 01

    Project logic and initial structure

    The project goal, relationships between decisions and the foundation of a systematic workflow are established.

  2. Stage 02

    ARCHICAD and BIM workflow

    Architectural decisions are progressively developed into a connected BIM model in ARCHICAD.

  3. Stage 03

    Documentation system

    Model information is organised into consistent project documentation and a studio-ready outcome.

  4. Stage 04

    Final project and presentation

    The project developed throughout the program is completed as a model, documentation and presentation package with mentor feedback.

[04] Learning outcomes

What will you be able to do by the end?

  1. Structure project decisions

    Organise architectural decisions and their relationships within one coherent workflow.

  2. Develop a BIM model progressively

    Translate project logic into a connected model in ARCHICAD.

  3. Document and present

    Combine the model, project documents and presentation into a consistent outcome.

  4. Complete work through feedback

    Develop the project with mentor feedback and prepare an outcome suitable for a personal portfolio.
