The lab
Inside the Design Lab
Design before tools
Hierarchy, grids and contrast come first, so every file you make later has a reason to exist.
Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma
Photoshop for retouching and compositing, Illustrator for logos and icons, Figma for layouts and UI.
AI inside the workflow
Generative tools for ideas, backgrounds and variations, with your typography and layout still leading.
Design next to video and marketing
You share the floor with editors and marketers, so your work ends up in real reels and ads, not just saved as a JPG.

How to compare graphic design academies in Calicut
- Is it design, or only software? A Photoshop class teaches buttons. A design academy teaches type, layout and colour first, then the tools.
- Is AI taught, and taught well? Generative tools belong in the workflow for speed, with your art direction leading.
- Does your work get used? Designing next to editors and marketers means your files end up in real reels and ads.
- What do you leave with? A brand kit and a portfolio folder you can send, not only a certificate.
