Not another online course with generic templates. Atelier Nova is a real design school in Berlin where you work on actual projects, get honest feedback and leave with a strong portfolio.
Call +49 30 221 98765I founded Atelier Nova because I was tired of seeing young designers who can make pretty pictures but can't solve real problems. Here we focus on fundamentals, critical thinking and real client work from the second month.
Small groups. Real studios. Mentors who actually work in the industry right now. Many of our graduates now work at agencies in Berlin, Hamburg and even in studios in Amsterdam and Zurich.
9 months. From sketching by hand to professional 3D visualization and client presentation. You will finish the course with 4 complete projects for your portfolio.
Next start: October 2026 • Limited to 12 students
6 months intensive. Identity, packaging, digital design. We work with real brands — some of our students even got hired by the companies they designed for during the course.
7 months. From research to high-fidelity prototypes. We collaborate with tech companies in Berlin so you get real feedback from product teams.
"I learned more in 6 months here than in 3 years at university. The mentors are tough but fair. They pushed me and now I have a portfolio I'm actually proud of." — Maria Klein, graduated March 2026
"The best decision I made last year. Already got my first paid project during the course." — Lukas Schmidt
All our teachers are active professionals. They don't just teach theory — they bring real projects and current market knowledge. You will get feedback from people who work with big German brands and international clients.
Places for the next semester are limited. Write us and we'll tell you everything about the programs and answer all your questions.
