Advanced SketchUp session for Interior Design students covering Module 8: Tags (Layers) & Model Organization and Module 9: Shadows & Lighting Study.

In Module 8, students learned to efficiently organize their models by:

* Creating and managing tags (layers)

* Assigning tags correctly for different elements

* Developing a structured tagging system for walls, furniture, lighting, and ceiling components

In Module 9, the focus shifted to environmental and visual analysis, where students explored:

Technical class on SketchUp for Interior Design students, covering advanced modules focused on modeling efficiency, materials, and presentation.

*MODULE 5: Groups & Components*

Students learned to improve workflow and model organization through:

* Creating and editing groups

* Creating components for repeated elements

* Understanding the importance of grouping for clean and efficient modeling

The British Academy of Arts and Design (BAAD) extends heartfelt wishes to all the inspiring women of the BAAD team and the Interior Design community on the occasion of International Women’s Day.

Today we celebrate the strength, creativity, dedication, and leadership of women who continuously contribute to shaping the world of design, education, and innovation. Your passion and commitment play a vital role in building a more inclusive, creative, and progressive design industry.

May this day serve as a reminder of the value, resilience, and achievements of women, and continue to inspire future generations to pursue excellence in the field of arts and design.

Wishing everyone a Happy Women’s Day filled with appreciation, empowerment, and continued success. @TAMANG SANDIPA @Archana Paudel @Sabina Workofficial @ashmitasyangtan06 @Anushka thakur @Khushboo Karn @Amrita Shrestha @esmarika baral @Annie @Barsha Shrestha

Our Level 1 Interior Design students stepped beyond the classroom to explore real-site architectural elements, including doors, windows, staircases, roofing details, cultural features, and architectural design components.

This practical exposure allowed students to observe structural systems in real environments while understanding the relationship between functionality and aesthetics. Through site analysis, they examined construction detailing, material application, proportion, and traditional architectural elements integrated within modern design concepts.

Such experiential learning strengthens students’ ability to connect theoretical knowledge with practical observation, enhancing their design understanding and analytical skills.

Level 1 AutoCAD Foundation Module for Interior Design students, focusing on building essential digital drafting skills.

1. Introduction to AutoCAD

Students were introduced to the AutoCAD interface and workspace environment, including:

* Workspace overview

* Toolbars, command line, and navigation bar

* Units, limits, and basic settings setup

As part of the ongoing digital design training at the British Academy of Arts and Design (BAAD), I conducted Module 3 and Module 4 of SketchUp for Interior Design students, focusing on modification tools and 3D modeling fundamentals.

MODULE 3: Modification & Editing Tools

Students were introduced to essential editing tools that enhance modeling efficiency and precision, including:

* Move Tool

* Rotate Tool

* Scale Tool
