About Design Software Training & Workshops
Why I Teach Design Software
I’m Akshay, and for me, learning new skills is the best way to move ahead. If you’re thinking, neevu design software kalibeku antha ideera? (Are you looking to learn design software?) then you’re at the right spot. My classes focus on keeping things simple and practical, without boring theory.
What You’ll Learn
I train on a bunch of popular design tools:
- AutoCAD for beginners - get your basics and 3D modeling sorted
- SketchUp & V-ray - for those cool 3D models and realistic renders
- Practical Revit training - perfect if you want to start with BIM
- Lumion - make walkthroughs and visualizations that actually impress
- Photoshop for design students - polish up your final work
You can pick just one software or go for a custom workshop that covers more. I’m flexible with how we structure it.
How Classes Work
- Online or offline (main base is CADD Centre, Yelahanka, Bengaluru)
- Individual courses or live SketchUp workshop style multi-day sessions
- Hands-on learning - you’ll work on live projects (interiors, exteriors, landscape)
Real-World Touch
Sometimes, I take students out for field visits and practical site marking. It’s not just about sitting at a computer, it’s about seeing how it all comes together on-site.
What Matters Most
I believe in building real connections and learning together. Like Kuvempu said, “Elladaru iru entadaru iru endendigu nee kannadavagiru” (Wherever you are, whoever you are, always be a Kannadiga). Let’s create something awesome.

My Story
Nanna hesaru Akshay Arun. Designing dreams and sharing gyan - that's me. I get a kick out of turning empty spaces into homes, from here in India to even South Sudan. But teaching? That's a different buzz, especially when civil engineering students light up after my workshops. Professors say I'm easy to approach, and I love breaking things down simply. Faith, family, my lab pups, and travel keep me grounded. Elladaru iru entadaru iru, endendigu nee kannadavagiru (Wherever you are, whatever you are, always be a Kannadiga) - roots matter, always.
My Work
All-in-one Design & Construction - I do 2D/3D building drawings, interior, exterior, front elevation, landscape, MEP, and structure for homes and offices.
See Your Home Before It's Built - We make rendered home visualization and realistic house walkthrough video, so you know exactly what you'll get.
Friendly Software Training - I run AutoCAD workshops for civil students and SketchUp training sessions. Ask me doubts, no hesitation.
Client-Driven Approach - I listen first, then design. Worked in India and abroad. Quality and new ideas always.
