Masters in Parametric Design / 2022 - 2023

As a student in the UPC School MPDA Master’s degree program in Parametric Design in Architecture, I worked on applying parametric design principles to create efficient and sustainable building solutions. Through practical workshops and real-world applications, I gained experience in using advanced software tools and integrating diverse disciplines such as BIM, urban design, and climate analysis into the design process. The program provided me with the skills and knowledge needed to become a builder of efficient and sustainable architectural systems, contributing to a more sustainable built environment.
