The beauty of being a designer is the ability to transform ideas into shapes and objects that meet the user's needs, whether functional or aesthetic. Finding the right solutions for your projects, however, often requires thinking outside the box and experimenting with different materials, textures, and light. This is the specialty of Marco Zavagno, designer and cofounder of Zaven studio, who has worked with clients like Nike, TIM, and the Venice Biennial. In this online course, Marco teaches you the art of paper-mache design to create colorful, one-of-a-kind 3D objects.

Learn to build small-scale experimental decor using only pulpboard and paper-mache. Start with a sketch and translate your concept into these simple materials before painting the outside to see how light interacts with its shapes and color, allowing you to produce the desired effect. Discover an alternative approach to design alongside Marco and create prototypes or mock-ups with his simple, effective method.
