Design Mastery Bundle
Learn more and save! The ultimate bundle will allow you to become a master of architectural design with Blender!
Learn, Create, and Transform Your Design Skills with Blender
I built these courses to empower your journey—delivering the precise skills my younger self needed to break into the industry, and the same streamlined training I provide colleagues to master complex projects efficiently. You’ll gain a rock-solid 3D modeling foundation for architecture, parametric, and visualization techniques that turn your concepts into proper client presentations.
Designed for beginners and seasoned users alike, this is designed to give you access to all the techniques and information to become a more effective and efficient designer. This is the knowledge I wish I had starting out—now distilled into a single framework to fast-track your mastery of architectural design.
What You’ll Learn
- Foundational and advanced workflows to help you express your design ideas better, efficiently and effectively
- Time-saving techniques that simplify complex tasks.
- High quality every-day presentation techniques that improve your communication with stakeholders
- Parametric workflows that enhance your speed and design capabilities including with Geometry Nodes.
Who This Bundle Is For
- Architects who want to modernize their workflow and improve design and visual communication.
- Students or graduates looking to stand out with advanced design skills.
- Designers aiming to transition into parametric or procedural modeling.
- Artists and anyone eager to create realistic, high-quality architectural renders.
What’s Included
Architecture Masterclass
Learn the basics from setting up a context to modeling a building, and populating the interior with free ready-made assets. Furthermore, you will learn how to render and post-process exterior shots.
Fluid Parametric Pavilion
Subdivision-based organic AND non-destructive modeling right inside of Blender! The workflow is Inspired by Maya modeling from Zaha Hadid and the AA DRL programme, where I studies. Highly useful also for furniture design,product design, interiors, buildings, and all the way up to masterplans.
Parametric Staggered Building Forms
Take your parametric modeling further by understanding simple non-destructive steps that can be combined together easily and effectively to produce fast and effective architectural concepts in a highly efficient time manner. You will learn how to create multiple residential buildings with highly adaptive, and easy-to-produce variations. This course covers introductory non-destructive workflows with Modifiers and builds up your knowledge all the way up to doing concepts with Geometry Nodes.
Bonus
For a limited time, if your purchase the Design Master Bundle, you also get lifetime access to Two more courses: Twisted Tower and Introduction to Blender for Architecture!
Exclusive Bundle Offer
Save over 30% by getting this bundle, compared to purchasing the individual courses. Add personalized one-to-one coaching session with further savings compared to a purchasing separately. With coaching you can get further direction towards workflows that address your biggest design challenges.

Courses Included
Dimitar Pouchnikov
Dimitar is an experienced architect, designer, and educator with over 13 years professional experience. He is driven by the desire to create beautiful spaces, buildings, and cities that work excellently for all users. His design philosophy is based on creating beautiful architecture through the intersection of design, creating a sense of place, and technology. This philosophy drives both his professional and academic research.
With most of his experience gained while working at distinguished architecture offices in London, Dimitar understands the architectural design process wholeheartedly. Having led teams as a project designer, he is aware how to communicate to both professionals and to clients successfully. He has and continues to communicate design visions confidently that manifest into beautiful and functional projects.
Dimitar knows that the proper architectural design process is demanding and rigorous, necessitating many revisions and parallel design explorations. He is grateful to have worked in teams that have taught him and enabled him to execute this proper design process - balancing beauty, function, user requirements, buildability, vision, and giving back.
Over the years, Dimitar has developed a balanced concept-driven design approach with industry-leading parametric design skills. Having the ability to move from a simple sketch to a complex 3d model quickly and effectively is an essential skill to move through design ideas efficiently. In this manner, finding the right mix of design ideas is achieved as quickly as possible, without wasting time redrawing or re-modelling unnecessary and repetitive steps. At the same time, parametric design enables inserting greater design intelligence into projects while reducing the effort required to document project parameters for construction.
Dimitar aims to work as much as possible with free, open-source, and non-subscription tools like Blender, Rhino, Grasshopper, and Affinity that allow professionals to have access to their drawings and designs without the need to rent their software just to access previous designs.
Blender is an essential part of Dimitar’s software design toolkit and he is on a mission to show as many architects and designers its key strategic advantages. He shows various use cases on the UH Studio Design Academy youtube channel, teaches numerous courses through UHSDA, and frequently collaborates with the industry’s leading education platforms like PA Academy, Futurly, Dezact and others. Dimitar also speaks at international conferences about the advantages of using Blender as a design tool.
Professionally, Dimitar has worked on many typologies, ranging from Cultural, Commercial, Residential, Urban Design, Sport, Entertainment, Masterplanning, and High-rise/mega-tall buildings. Among others, he has worked at HOK and Adjaye Associates in London.
Dimitar holds a postgraduate M.Arch degree from the Architectural Association, Design Research Lab Programme and a 5 year professional B.Arch degree from Tyler School of Art, Temple University, in Philadelphia.
Dimitar learned Maya at the DRL programme at the AA and realised that everything that Zaha designers were teaching us with Maya can be done with Blender, and even more! After graduating, he transferred over his newly acquired Maya design skills to Blender and has been further expanding them since.
