Design schools are used by students well beyond timetabled hours, which means the building has to support 24×7 access, robust dust extraction for model-making, and secure material storage, none of which apply to a conventional classroom building. EROCON designs B.Des (Product/Fashion/Communication/UX) and M.Des campuses across India around this studio-culture brief.
Our architecture team designs studio wings with 24×7 access and fabrication-lab services engineered in from the start, and EROCON constructs to that specification.
Design education in India has expanded rapidly over the past decade, with NID, IITs and a growing number of private institutions now offering B.Des/M.Des programmes across product, fashion, communication and UX design.

Why do design studios need 24/7 access?
Design students work well beyond timetabled hours. Independent access control, lighting and HVAC zoning let the studio wing run outside normal building hours without powering the whole block.
What safety provisions does a fabrication lab need?
Dust extraction, a spray booth and dedicated fire-safety separation from academic areas planned in before equipment like 3D printers, laser cutters and CNC routers arrive, not after.
How much studio space does a design school need?
Design Studios are typically the single largest line item in the school budget large, flexible, well-lit rooms with adjustable work-tables and pin-up walls rather than standard classroom modules.
EROCON’s architecture team designs studio wings with 24×7 access, dust extraction and fabrication-lab services engineered in from the start, and EROCON constructs to that specification, so the school opens with functioning workshops, not workshops awaiting a services retrofit.
