Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need paid software to follow Module 2?

AutoCAD has a free 1-year student license, SketchUp Free is free (web), V-Ray is paid but has a trial, and DiaLux is completely free. We guide you step by step through installation.

How long does it take to complete Module 2?

On average 4-5 weeks studying 5-7 hours a week. The lessons are short and hands-on: you can follow one tool at a time or work in parallel.

What computer do I need?

A computer that's 4-5 years old is fine for SketchUp and AutoCAD. For V-Ray you'll want a recent dedicated graphics card for fast renders, but you can still follow the module on modest machines.

Do I need to do Module 1 first?

Recommended but not required. Module 1 provides the design fundamentals we'll use here. If you already have experience, you can start directly from Module 2.

Will I get help with the software?

Yes: your personal mentor reviews the hands-on exercises, answers questions by email and on dedicated calls. Every project is reviewed one-on-one.

Can I buy only Module 2?

The Master is sold as a single package with all 4 modules included (€1670 or 3 installments of €597). The free trial gives access to 9 initial lessons with no commitment.
