The Parametric Optimizations Workshop focuses on managing design data and optimizing projects for sustainability and performance using Ladybug and LunchBox.
Close the year by strengthening the foundations of how architecture is shaped, built, and communicated. PAACADEMY’s December 2025 bundle brings together two complementary workshops that move fluidly between digital form generation, physical prototyping, real-time rendering, and AI-driven visualization.
Designed for architects, designers, and computational thinkers, this bundle focuses on hands-on workflows that connect SubD modeling, parametric systems, augmented reality construction, and AI-assisted presentation. From refined architectural geometry to experimental brick assemblies visualized through AI, the bundle emphasizes design intelligence over stylistic shortcuts.
What You Will Learn
SubD Intelligence: Architectural Modeling & AI Rendering
Create and edit complex architectural forms using Rhino’s SubD tools
Develop a complete conceptual model through guided, hands-on exercises
Optimize geometry for real-time rendering and visualization workflows
Set up materials, lighting, and camera views in Enscape
Enhance architectural visuals using ReRenderAI and Gemini
Produce polished final renderings ready for professional presentation
Parametric Brickscapes: Grasshopper, Augmented Reality & AI
Understand the foundations of parametric design thinking in Grasshopper
Design a rule-based brick wall system controlling pattern, density, and form
Translate digital models into physical assemblies using AR-guided construction with Fologram and Jenga blocks
Capture and process physical prototypes into AI-based renders and animations using Midjourney

Sera Su Abaç is a London-based architect currently contributing her expertise at Zaha Hadid Architects, where she engages in a diverse range of international projects spanning various scales, typologies, and stages. Prior to her role at ZHA, she gained valuable experience at the esteemed Greek architecture firm ASPA-KST. She holds a Master’s degree in Architecture and Urbanism from the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London, following her studies at GAD Academy in Istanbul. Her architectural journey began at Bilkent University, where she earned her Bachelor’s degree in Architecture.
Chhavi Mehta is an architect and designer practicing between the UK and India, focusing on experimental design at the intersection of architecture, art, and emerging technologies. She holds a Master’s in Architecture and Urbanism from the AADRL at the Architectural Association, where she was part of the Cyber-Urban Incubator led by Patrik Schumacher.She has over six years of professional experience in London, including her time at Zaha Hadid Architects, where she worked on international projects across architecture, interiors, product design, and the metaverse.
Her design language is rooted in fluid, sculptural forms, developed through complex parametric modeling, with Autodesk Maya as her primary tool. Chhavi also holds a Master’s in Advanced Architectural Design from Oxford Brookes University and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Bath.
With over three years of teaching experience, she conducts workshops and talks on AI in architecture, fluid 3D modeling, and digital fabrication, focusing on how emerging technologies are reshaping workflows and pushing design beyond the limits of conventional architecture across both physical and digital environments.
Arya Gupta is an architect, builder, and educator working between India and the UK, with a focus on computational design, digital fabrication, and emerging construction technologies. He holds a Master’s in Architecture and Urbanism from the Design Research Lab (AADRL) at the Architectural Association, London.Operating at the intersection of practice, research, and education, Arya is a Director and practicing architect at Harsh Group, a real estate firm leading the redevelopment of residential buildings across Mumbai. Alongside his professional practice, he teaches and conducts research in computational design at DY Patil School of Architecture, where he mentors the next generation of architects in generative design thinking.Specialising in design research, Arya continually explores new workflows and emerging tools to advance architectural practice, with mastery in Rhino and Grasshopper as core components of his computational approach. This specialisation informs his current work in real estate and architecture - and his previous work, at a London-based automation-driven biotech firm, where he developed computational workflows for research and designed automation-compatible robotic systems. His design portfolio spans installations and architectural projects across residential, commercial, and mixed-use sectors in India.Through his multifaceted work, Arya is committed to reshaping and improving the existing design and fabrication landscape by integrating research, education, and technology-driven innovation.
Dynamic Sketching: AI-Powered Architecture is not just a workshop; it's a creative breakthrough for architects, designers, and students ready to revolutionize the way they present their ideas.
