## About For Design & Architecture Students

Design software is perfect, but the real test is how your idea handles physical weight and material grain. In these sessions, I focus on helping you understand the 'why' behind construction. You’ll stop guessing if a joint will hold and start knowing, whether you are prototyping a furniture piece or using Kumiko strips to build a scale model.

### From Rendering to Reality

We’ve all seen it: a design that looks beautiful on a screen but falls apart in the real world. In these workshops, I help students bridge that gap. You aren't here to watch a demo; you are here to handle the material. By building your designs, you learn about structural integrity, wood movement, and the limitations of your own sketches.

### What You Will Learn

*   **Material Behavior:** You will work with Russian Birch Plywood, Pine, and hardwoods. You will learn how to cut, stain, and join them effectively.
*   **Tool Fluency:** You won't just see a bandsaw or a router; you will use them to cut curves, edges, and dados for your prototypes.
*   **Precision Engineering:** For architecture students, we use techniques like Kumiko joinery to build 3D architectural models that are far more accurate than cardstock versions.
*   **Construction Logic:** I teach you how to think like a builder. How do you attach a frame? How do you hide a screw? How do you ensure a table doesn't wobble? These are the practical details that make or break a design.

### The Kydo Approach

I run these sessions to be high-intensity and high-reward. Whether you are working on a 1-year diploma project or just trying to figure out how to scale a piece of furniture, the studio in Bangalore is set up to let you experiment safely. 

No prior carpentry skill is needed. You come with your drawings, and we figure out how to build them. Expect a day of sawdust, power tools, and a lot of problem-solving. This is where you learn that the 'make' is just as important as the design.

## About Kydo

I’m Kydo, and I built this workshop because I wanted a place where design students could swap their mouse for a chisel. We aren't here for theory—we’re here to build, mess up, and learn how things actually fit together.
