A Day in the Life of an Interior Design Student at Kalapurnam Institute

Ever wondered what it takes to put oneself in the shoes of an aspiring interior designer? If your Pinterest boards are filled with dreamy spaces, you sketch floor plans during lectures, you might just be at the best interior design institute.

A Day in the Life of an Interior Design Student at Kalapurnam Institute

Let’s give you a sneak peek into a day at Kalapurnam Institute, the leading interior design institute in Ahmedabad, as an interior design student. Know how they learn, play with aesthetics, structure and structure with spontaneity, and imagination with industry.

Rise and Design: Morning Burst of Inspiration

No alarms go off; ideas do. Morning waves at Kalapurnam begin with a spontaneous session of scrolling through Pinterest, Elle Decor, or Instagram reels of dreamy spaces (totally guilty!). 

Our students begin their day with chai and design inspirations. From the archway of some old Haveli to the symmetry in a minimalist workspace, the best hits come in the morning. 

Once on campus, the vibes turn very electric. Being the leading interior design institute in Ahmedabad, Kalapurnam doesn’t just teach design; it lives design. Morning classes dive into theory, but never boring! It starts from spatial planning to understanding textures; students get a deep dive into the fundamentals.

Sketch. Strategise. Slay.

Almost by mid-morning: the defining moment. We dive into core modules like:

  • Space Planning
  • Material Studies & Textiles
  • Design History & Modern Movements

What makes it cool? The whole concept of combinations of learning modes, ranging from guest lecturers from industry experts, discussions in TED style, to good old practical activities. So, there’s a creative factor in the method of teaching. 

In Kalapurnam, theory gets not only taught but also visualized, debated upon, and lived.

One of our favorites for doing things is: chugging a sketchbook, jamming out ideas for floor layouts and client briefs. 

Research here is serious business, and thanks to our digital labs, access to global case studies and materials is just a click away.

Let the Hands Do the Talking in Afternoon

Lunch is done? Studio grind kicks in. Now, this is when 2D ideas get transformed into wow! 

Afternoon is all about:

  • Concept Building
  • Drafting Floor Plans
  • Creating Material Boards
  • Moving all around Model-making (Imply Thermocol, Fabric Swatches, Wood Samples, and Many More Fevicol!) 

Students use software interfaces like Sketch-Up, AutoCAD, and Revit to convert loosely hand-drawn concepts into presentations worthy of the client. 

Of course, like when a student declares, “Hey, I used to hate CAD… now it’s my bestie!”

You’ll often see peers huddled over design critiques, bouncing ideas off each other, and leveling up with instructor feedback. It’s collaborative, constructive, and super energizing.

Field Trips and Industry Feels

One of the best perks of studying at Kalapurnam? Regular industry visits and site walkthroughs.

Whether it is a visit to a luxury hotel project, the production unit of modular furniture, or an ongoing renovation site, students get to witness the future profession at work. These visits add perspective to what is learned in class and enable students to understand space use, budget controls, and client requirements.

We also arrange skill-building workshops like digital rendering, lighting design, and color psychology, all aiming at boosting your career-readiness.

Evenings: Reflect, Refine, Rejuvenate

As the sun sets, most students are:

  • Working on design boards
  • Practicing presentations
  • Uploading assignments
  • Working on group projects

But socializing does exist! Students relax in the institute with indie playlists in the background or chat about design trends over a cup of chai. Have I said it? Balance is sacred. Kalapurnam also focuses on your mental health, for creative burnout is a thing; we discuss it, address it, and prevent it.
