3D Modeling

PAACADEMY's 3D Modeling courses cover the full range of modeling tools used in contemporary architectural practice, product design, animation and web-based spatial design. Beginner tracks start with SketchUp for Beginners 101 and Maya for Beginners 101: Cyber Tower, which introduce core 3D modeling fundamentals. The Blender curriculum builds progressively through Blender for Architects, Blender for Architects 2.0 and Blender for Architects 3.0, covering modeling, rendering and animation, while Blender for Architects: Design to Fabrication connects digital output to physical production. For advanced workflows, Hybrid Modeling with ZBrush uses Adobe Illustrator, Rhinoceros 3D and ZBrush to combine surface, NURBS and sculpting approaches into a single architectural workflow. Parametric Explorations of Suggestive Design uses Rhinoceros 3D, Grasshopper 3D, Weaverbird, Pufferfish, LunchBox, Kangaroo and Parakeet to develop complex parametric geometries. The category also extends into real-time and spatial design. The Unreal Engine Blueprint teaches Unreal Engine alongside Rhinoceros 3D for real-time architectural visualization and interactive environments. Web-based applications are explored in AI Worldbuilding with SvelteKit and Three.js, which uses Gemini, Claude AI, SvelteKit, Vite and Three.js to build data-driven environments. Finally, spatial and immersive design appears in Immersive Environments: VR and AR in Architecture, Spatial Computing: XR for Architects and Sculpture Synergy with VR, serving architects, interaction designers and XR practitioners.
