This module explores the difference between 2D and 3D shapes and the aesthetic, informational, structural and visual role of 2D patterns in design and digital fabrication. By assembling pre-cut laser-cut 2D elements into a 3D form, exploring the moiré effect, and working hands-on with a diode laser, students learn vector-file preparation basics, the difference between cutting and engraving, and laser safety procedures. The workshop follows a 'hand before software' principle — an analogue chisel/pyrography exercise always precedes the digital (CNC/laser) equivalent.

This intensive three-day course provides a practical, engineering-focused introduction to metal additive manufacturing. Participants gain a comprehensive understanding of PBF-LB and WAAM technologies, learn how to assess manufacturability, optimize geometries for additive processes, and understand the relationship between process parameters, material behavior, and final part properties. The course combines expert lectures, hands-on laboratory work, and individual consultations on real industrial use cases.

This module introduces students to 3D bodies, 3D technologies, and the basic process of turning an idea into a digital and physical 3D model. Through presentation, demonstration and hands-on work, students learn the difference between 2D and 3D representation, the main groups of 3D technologies (additive, subtractive, forming, digitising), modelling in Onshape, 3D printing and the 3D pen. The same shape is built both by hand (3D pen) and digitally (CAD model, slicing, 3D printer) — so students understand why the digital step exists in the first place.
