About your tutor
I am Vikramaditya Shah Bundela, an architect specialising in architectural design, conservation, and AI integration. With experience across three firms, I have developed diverse skills, from designing and preserving structures to training AI models for architectural applications. Teaching is a passion of mine—I have mentored students and professionals worldwide, both independently and through an architecture education startup. I am proficient in 11+ design tools, including Revit, SketchUp, Rhino 3d, and Autocad Architecture, Photoshop, InDesign, Lumion, D5 Render, Twinmotion and more. I focus on optimising architectural workflows using AI. My dissertation explored AI-driven design automation, and I continue to push the boundaries of technology in the AEC industry. I know 50+ AI tools and always strive to teach the easiest workflow possible.

Class overview
My teaching methodology is centred around interactive, two-way engagement, where I encourage students to actively participate and share their insights—I often learn from them as well. I believe in project-based learning and teach accordingly. I think that students should learn by doing and not just watching tutorials. I focus on teaching the most efficient and optimised workflows for architectural software, ensuring students gain practical expertise that enhances their professional capabilities. My approach emphasises hands-on learning, catering to all skill levels, from beginners to advanced professionals. I challenge students to push their boundaries, refine their skills, and strive for excellence. Teaching is a continuous learning experience for me, and my passion lies in exploring emerging tools and innovations that shape the future of architectural design.

Architecture concepts taught by Vikramaditya Shah
The Student and Tutor worked through a complex AutoCAD printing problem, specifically addressing unexpected margins appearing on A3 drawings. They identified and corrected AutoCAD's page setup for full bleed, diagnosed printer-specific limitations, and established a workaround by adjusting drawing margins. The Student plans to apply these settings to other sheets and a follow-up session was scheduled for further review.

The Student and Tutor had their first AutoCAD class, focusing on an extensive introduction to the software. The Tutor guided the Student through interface customization, essential navigation commands, and the practical application of fundamental drawing and modification tools, including comprehensive instruction on utilizing layers for organization. The Student received a homework assignment to practice tracing an imported image to build proficiency for their upcoming project.

The Student and Tutor held an introductory session to discuss learning SketchUp for exhibition design. The Tutor provided a comprehensive overview of SketchUp's core functionalities, essential plugins, external asset libraries, and rendering solutions like Enscape. They also reviewed the Student's current SketchUp model and outlined a project-based learning plan for future sessions, emphasizing regular practice.

The Student and Tutor reviewed a building design project, focusing on a comparative carbon analysis between a base-case and an optimized design using Revit and carbon analysis software. They discussed key settings for accurate energy modeling and material property modifications to achieve design case improvements. The session concluded with planning the final presentation, including generating specific architectural detail drawings and populating the presentation with analysis charts.

Optimizing Revit for Energy and Carbon Analysis
Customizing Material & System Properties for Accurate Carbon Modeling
Generating Architectural Details for Sustainable Design Presentation
Student and Tutor reviewed the optimization of an architectural design project, focusing on energy use intensity and operational carbon. They collaboratively troubleshooted issues with embodied carbon calculations in design software and practiced creating detailed architectural sections in Revit using 2D drawing tools and AI as a reference. The Student was assigned to complete these architectural details and run further systems analyses.

Leveraging AI for Architectural Detail Generation
Student and Tutor focused on preparing a Revit model for energy analysis, troubleshooting issues with room and space definitions to ensure accurate analytical model generation. They practiced running solar, operational energy, and embodied carbon analyses for a 'base case' building. The Student's follow-up task is to create a 'design case' model and modify building material properties and system settings for a comparative sustainability analysis.
