PAACADEMY's Architectural Design courses span the full range of computational and parametric practice. Courses like Parametric Pavilion Design: From Concept to Fabrication and Algorithmic Urban Design in Grasshopper teach site analysis, massing and fabrication-ready geometry using Rhinoceros 3D, Grasshopper 3D and Ladybug. Bio-inspired and biomimetic design appears across Bio-Inspired Architecture 3.0, BioGeometry: Biomimetic Design Strategies and BioDesign: Biological and Ecological Systems, drawing from natural systems to generate architectural form and structure.
Kinetic and adaptive systems are explored in Kinetic Architecture and Adaptive Facades, while environmental performance runs through Radical Net-Zero Buildings and the Performative Facades series. Entry-level courses including Computational Mindset: Foundations for Innovation in Design and Computational Thinking introduce Rhinoceros 3D, Grasshopper 3D and core parametric logic for architects with no prior computational experience. Advanced studios cover generative urbanism, parametric acoustic architecture, space syntax, origami structures and transformable systems.
