Architecture & Design Software Mastery: Digital Tools, Traditional Drawing & Fundamental Design Principles

Àpd 68 $ /h

Master the complete toolkit of modern architecture and design practice, from digital software to traditional drawing techniques. As a practicing architect with 15+ years of international experience and 150+ successful students, I teach the essential skills that bridge traditional fundamentals with cutting-edge technology.
Digital Tools: SketchUp (advanced modelling, V-Ray, Enscape, D5 rendering), Rhino (precision surface modelling, KeyShot workflows), Vectorworks (Architect, Landmark, Spotlight modules), reality capture integration, GIS workflows, and AI-driven design processes.

Traditional Skills: Descriptive geometry (orthographic projection, axonometric systems, perspective theory), hand drawing techniques using pencils, ink, felt-tip pens, and watercolours, spatial visualisation, and technical drawing fundamentals.

Sketching Module: Can be approached through analog tools (traditional drawing materials) or digital platforms, including Morpholio Trace, Procreate, and Sketchbook, allowing you to choose your preferred medium while learning the same fundamental sketching principles.

Disciplines Covered: Architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, product design, furniture design, lighting design, MEP systems, and show design applications.
My teaching philosophy combines fundamental geometric principles with modern digital workflows. Whether sketching by hand or modelling in 3D, the same spatial understanding drives both approaches. I integrate traditional drawing skills with digital modelling, showing how hand sketching informs digital design and how software tools can enhance traditional techniques.

After an initial assessment, I'll create your personalised roadmap using flexible learning formats from structured instruction to project collaboration. You'll gain access to curated resources, technique recordings, and ongoing support, mastering both timeless design principles and contemporary digital tools that practicing professionals rely on daily.

Mastering software only requires good supervision, that's why I offer this training to better guide you and help you produce a project from A to Z, from drawing plans to rendering photorealists of your project. Archicad and Lumion software are tools that will now make your job easier to better design the space.

- Do you want to save as much time as possible?
- Draw your projects in 2D
- Model them in 3D
- Produce its graphic boards useful for their understanding and realization [plan, section, facade, diagrams or 3D]

ArchiCAD is the software you need to accomplish all this SIMULTANEOUSLY.

As the first BIM software in the world, ArchiCAD is used internationally, so it will open many doors for you in the world of work. Not only has an elegant interface that is very easy to handle and a set of powerful integrated tools, ArchiCAD is the most intuitive and efficient BIM software on the market.

-This course, which I do live by sharing a video screen with my students, and which I also do at home, is dedicated to professionals and also students in design or architecture schools or building training to learn how to draw a Archicad efficiently to be able to practice it with professionalism.
I will teach you all the useful Archicad tools, I will give you exercises and I will give you projects to work on
together.

Je propose des cours de soutien pour les étudiants en architecture qui souhaitent de l'aide en projet, pour les jurys ou tout au long de l'année. Les matières théoriques sont également dans mes cordes ainsi que la relecture de TFE.

Par exemple :
- Préparation d'un oral en béton pour convaincre le jury de façon claire et attrayante
- Construction d'un projet solide, qui tient la route tout en valorisant l'originalité développée par l'étudiant
- Aide au dessin, conseils pour des documents efficaces adaptés au projet
- Aide au dessin informatique sur Autocad, Sketchup, Twinmotion, Archicad, ...
- Conseils et tips qui font la différence
- Aide pour les différentes matières théoriques (Philo, Socio, CAO, Topo, Structure, Histoire, ...)

A propos de moi : je suis jeune architecte, diplômé de l'université de Liège en 2023 avec grande distinction. J'ai toujours soutenu les étudiants durant mes études, nottament grâce au monitorat du cours de projet et du cours de topographie. Aujourd'hui, je travaille dans un bureau d'architecture en province de Liège et réussis à allier passion, créativité, analyse et plaisir pour pratiquer ce beau métier truffé d'exigences.

Architecte diplômée d’État et HMONP formée à l’ENSA Marseille, je possède une solide expérience acquise au sein de diverses agences dont certaines reconnues, notamment Vezzoni & Associés, Alain Sarfati Architectes (Paris). Mon parcours m’a amenée à travailler sur des projets variés — du logement collectif aux équipements publics — ainsi qu’à participer à des concours, dont plusieurs primés.
Passionnée par la conception architecturale et les enjeux contemporains liés à la densité, à la réhabilitation et à la qualité environnementale, j’attache une grande importance à la cohérence entre intention, usage et contexte.
Au fil de mon parcours, j’ai développé une approche à la fois créative et rigoureuse, cherchant toujours à relier l’esthétique, la fonctionnalité et le respect du contexte.

J’aime partager les méthodes et outils qui permettent de passer de l’idée au projet concret : croquis, maquette, modélisation 3D, compréhension des volumes et de la lumière.
Mon objectif est d’aider chaque élève à exprimer sa sensibilité et à développer sa propre démarche de projet.
Patiente et à l’écoute, je m’adapte au niveau et aux besoins de chacun pour faire de chaque cours un moment d’échange, de créativité et de découverte.
