about the school
11 weeks including a 3 days bootcamp at the end of the school
11 weeks s of learning hands-on design, together with 15 other ambitous and driven team mates. In teams of 4 you will collaborate to uncover the world of design through both individual contributions and collaborative work. (don’t worry, we’ll pair you with the coolest people)
Together with your team mates you will be solving a real problem given by a company. You’ll be provided with the initial context of the problem and from there, you’ll start working on it as a designer, guided by the school professors. We’ll have 4 company challenges and you’ll be able to contribute to other teams’ challenge as well (in this way, you’ll build your first portfolio project).

how is it going to be
Every week, you should expect:
- about 3 hours of online live classes to give you the information you need for each chapter of learning (some call it theory, we call it the pieces of puzzle you need).
- a few weekly assignments which you’re expected to work on in your team.
- scheduled calls to check in and work with your people.
- a 1 hour debriefing and feedback session at the end of the week.
- alone time for you to read, learn, reflect
(basically, you can expect to dedicate some time to this every other day, but rest assured it’s going to be just what you need, altought at times you’ll want to send us, well, to hell)
Once every 3 weeks we’ll also have a longer group class session. This is right about when challenging, turning points in the design process occur. Ideally we would meet somewhere in real life (for those living in the same cities), but online will be great too (by this point you’ll be an almost designer, so you can take that as another design challenge to tackle).
We’ll wrap things up nicely with a 4-day bootcamp.

The bootcamp
new design topics covered during the bootcamp
The bootcamp is an essential part of the learning experience. And is not optional.
(not that you’d want it to be optional. we’re sure it could create some real FOMO feelings)
We’ll add new dimensions and perspective on design. We’ll bring you additional topics, tools and processes in design, as well as design in other fields. This comes only to integrate design as a mindset and a whole, by practicing it in oter fields.
We’re building the bootcamp as a big denouement for the school experience. As one of those endings that only ignite something bigger. It’s going to be inefable (as some of the great designers we know like to call those experiences that cannot be explained, but lived trough)
The guest speakers, the accelerated learning, the workshops, the wows, the laughters, the materials, the ending dinner and some other surprises - they’re all included in the school’s experience and cost.
However, accommodation, food and transporation will be paid separately. Accommodation and food (3 meals per day) will be rougly 270 eur/person.
