Master in Parametric Design, Spring 2026 by Controlmad

Master Course in Parametric Design

A unique study program to introduce you to the world of computational design, the state-of-the-art field for product design, architecture, landscape, engineering, digital fabrication… through creating physical and digital parametric models using as main tools Grasshopper for Rhino, along with CNC (computer-numeric control) machines.

The course is divided into two parts:

  • Part I – Digital ToolsI (248 hours)
    Learn Rhino and Grasshopper from the ground up to advanced techniques. Topics include data management, organic modeling, artificial intelligence, Python scripting, structural analysis with Karamba3D, form-finding with Kangaroo, optimization workflows, and more.

  • Part II – Digital Fabrication (137 hours)
    Hands-on experience with 3D printing, robotic arms, laser cutting, CNC milling, G-code generation, nesting strategies, and other fabrication technologies.

You may choose multiple ways to take it:

  • Entire course (onsite or online)
  • Just Part I (onsite or online)
  • Hybrid: Part I online + Part II onsite.

The last early bird fees are available!
