COURSESGeometry, computational design and critical design judgement
Each Form Workshop Course consists of 6 × 2.5-hour course components.
Before the course, we discuss your team’s experience, interests and goals. Form Workshop then curates the six components around your needs.
A course combines different teaching modes:
> FROM SCRATCH
> GUIDED MODELLING
> STUDIO
> PROBLEM CLINIC
> PERSPECTIVES
6 × 2.5-hour course components
- flexible distribution
Schedule the six components flexibly — as full days, half-days or spread over several weeks.
After booking, we meet to define the course focus, participant level, composition and any useful preparation.
€3000 net
up to 15 participants
+ €200 net / additional participant
Payment via invoice after completion
A €100 reservation and administration payment is made before scheduling. It covers the initial planning, communication and setup and is credited towards the course fee.
6 × 2.5-hour course components
- over 3 consecutive days
Form Workshop comes to your office for the complete course.
Before the course, we meet to define the focus, participant level and composition of the six components.

Travel and accommodation within Europe included.
Start with a short online meeting. We discuss your office, team and what you would like the course to achieve, and look at possible dates if you already have them in mind.
Foundations > Design Studio
For a team that wants to establish common skills before moving into individual design development (click underlined modes to read more).
01 — PERSPECTIVES + FROM SCRATCH
Frames the course and establishes essential methods.
02 — GUIDED MODELLING
Model selected geometric structures together.
03 — GUIDED MODELLING
Develop the methods and increase complexity.
04 — PERSPECTIVES + STUDIO
Move from shared methods towards your own design.
05 — STUDIO
Develop individual work with Form Workshop support.
06 — PROBLEM CLINIC + PERSPECTIVES
Review recurring problems, present the work and reflect on the results.
Design Studio
For a team already familiar with the tools and wanting to concentrate on individual design development (click underlined modes to read more).
01 — PERSPECTIVES + GUIDED MODELLING
Define design intentions and explore relevant methods.
02 — GUIDED MODELLING + STUDIO
Develop the methods and begin individual applications.
03 — STUDIO
Test, model and refine your own design.
04 — PROBLEM CLINIC
Analyse recurring problems and transferable strategies.
05 — STUDIO
Apply the findings and develop the design further.
06 — STUDIO + PERSPECTIVES
Complete, present and critically reflect on the results.
Project Lab
For a team wanting to learn through current architectural or design challenges while contributing directly to ongoing project work (click underlined modes to read more).
01 — PERSPECTIVES + STUDIO
Frame the project and identify the key geometric and computational challenges.
02 — GUIDED MODELLING
Introduce methods specifically relevant to those challenges.
03 — STUDIO
Apply the methods directly to current project work.
04 — PROBLEM CLINIC
Review what has emerged and analyse recurring difficulties.
05 — STUDIO
Develop and test project-specific solutions with Form Workshop support.
06 — STUDIO + PERSPECTIVES
Present the project work and extract methods for future use.
Every course is curated around the group.
We discuss your team’s experience, what you want to learn, relevant design interests and current challenges, whether preparatory material would be useful, and how the six components should be scheduled.
You do not need to design the programme yourself. Form Workshop curates it with you.
If you would like to discuss an on-site course, a custom course, or simply talk before booking, you can book a short introductory meeting.
Longer courses, specialised subjects and alternative formats can be developed by arrangement.
