Digital Design: 3D CAD advanced Program
BA Major Design Semester
2025/26 WS Can the digital world surpass the physical? Throughout this course, we challenged the boundaries of 3D design, exploring innovative workflows to recreate and enhance complexity. We didn’t just learn tools; we developed a new perspective on problem-solving, learning how to approach intricate surfaces and geometries from multiple angles.
Our toolkit expanded from core modeling to advanced visualization techniques. By mastering the interplay of light, the precision of 3D scanning, and the rhythm of animation, we learned to bring life to digital environments. This showcase is the culmination of that process: an invitation to explore a world where imagination meets technical excellence.

Digital Design: 3D CAD advanced
The course 'Digital Design: 3D CAD Advanced' will proficient the students to the digital-design techniques and methods for digital modelling through advanced operational tools. The aim of the course is to achieve the control of highly complex geometries production and their representation. Students will use different techniques to produce digital design, working and understanding different typologies and mathematical model, including Meshes, SubD and NURBS surfaces. Particular attention will be to understand and learn the process of polygonal modelling and the workflow between the different geometries, software and application-scenarios.
