We are honored to share that one of our students was selected as a shortlisted participant for the Kurula Varkey Design Forum ( KVDF ) 2026, hosted at CEPT University, as part of its 25th anniversary edition.

Out of 175+ outstanding thesis projects from across South Asia, this project, ‘Reclaiming Power’, was selected as one of the final 20 to be exhibited and discussed at the forum.

The forum brings together some of the region’s most compelling final-year projects, creating a platform for meaningful dialogue among students from diverse architectural schools, alongside leading academicians and practitioners from around the world. Structured around selected thesis projects, the discussions extend beyond individual work to address broader questions and concerns relevant to the architectural fraternity.
