Student Testimonial
I am a post graduate in Material Science but the art of Interior Design had always fascinated me. I believe a house is a structure built with physical materials; while a home is made of the dreams, aspirations and aesthetics of the inhabitants. A home reflects the inner self of its residents, I wanted to add character and individuality along with beauty and happiness to a home. So, I started searching for a well-structured curriculum which could equip me to develop new ideas and expand my horizons in designing homes in personalized and pragmatic way. There I found Cindrebay, a place as I imagined; to help me make my dreams come true. I enjoyed each and every day of my life in Cindrebay which challenged me to go the extra mile and added professionalism into my efforts.

PG Diploma in Interior Design
I studied Electronics & Communication Engineering and worked in Wipro technologies in Pune, and further lived in Chicago. However my passion for design brought me here. Cindrebay School of Design is a great place to learn. The classes are fun, very dynamic and has a friendly atmosphere. It's like when you get into kindergarten - your teacher guides you to do what you like with the available mediums and that's when your imagination begins to take a physical form. At Cindrebay, one experiences a similar but more refined and sophisticated form of guidance to bring out one's creativity. The School takes the students from ideas to inspiration to activity and creativity and finally to innovation.

Since my school days I have always been fascinated by the field of Interior Design. After my graduation in IT I was looking out for a good institution to get a proper training in Interior Design. It was then I heard about Cindrebay which had just started functioning in Nagpur. I was one of the initial batch students of Cindrebay Nagpur. As a student I found that it was an institution where the approach is more about practical and hands on learning than just rote book learning, where they encouraged us to develop our intuition and promote design thinking. We got many workshops and guest lectures on a regular basis. I am thankful to the whole Cindrebay team in.

After completing my B. Arch., I realized that I needed to have a deeper knowledge and understanding about Interior Design. I wanted to gain insights about furniture design, interior architecture and the nuances of interior styling. As a student of Cindrebay Nagpur I can confidently tell that it is the only institute here offering a proper programme in interior design with an intensive one year Diploma Course. I was impressed by the syllabus, the infrastructure and the dedicated senior design professionals who were teaching us. The site visits and workshops organized for us almost every Saturday were diverse and interesting, with teachers and management showing keen interest. I would recommend Cindrebay to anyone who has a genuine inclination for interior design

I am a Civil Engineering degree holder passed out from Ramdev Baba College, Nagpur and also had a family business. But I wanted to make my own Identity in civil engineering and interior field. I am glad that I chose the right institute as most of the faculty there had done PG and were practicing designers or architects. They gave us more practical knowledge which was most important aspect of this subject. Cindrebay conducted many workshops, site-visits, guest lectures etc. which helped me a lot for upgrading my domain related knowledge. It was a wonderful year of my academic experience.

I had the privilege of being the first student of the first batch of Cindrebay Interior Design Institute. We were just 9 students in a batch then for around 6 months till the next batch came to share all the pampering and attention we enjoyed from our beloved teachers. Today the school has grown to be a true kick start home for around 100 students in a year spread along 5 to 6 batches. I would say that Cindrebay is a perfect start to guide you throughout your career and definitely it is one the best interior design institutes in Kerala. I should specially mention the Cindrebay team which sincerely imparts strong fuel to drive every new comer s dreams ahead and definitely they give you that personal care we all need to take our goals far.

PG Diploma in Interior Design
When I joined Cindrebay Calicut the classes we got were mainly from Ms Anuradha Menon, Mr Rennie Paul and Mr Madhu Menon. Anu madam, a graduate in architecture of the prestigious MS University Baroda, demonstrated the knowledge, the teaching standard and the involvement any student would dream of from a teacher. Rennie sir, a product of NID Ahmedabad, and with years of experience in furniture design, thrilled us with his practice oriented sessions. Madhu sir, a civil engineer turned interior designer was the star of the pack as he was a source of inspiration for many of us to start our own design ventures after we graduated. Big thanks to all :-)
