"It was a great course. I went from beginner to intermediate in one weekend, and learned lots of design concepts along the way. I also enjoyed the hands on teaching style. Would definitely recommend."
"Vishakha is a naturally gifted teacher. Her explanations were clear and easy to follow. She broke down each step to achieve a specific architectural illustration style — I now feel much more confident creating well-designed, illustrated diagrams."
"The introduction to Illustrator was very helpful as a beginner and allowed the rest of the course to flow smoothly. It was direct, showing exactly how to use specific tools — while also encouraging me to explore my own personal style."
"Beginner-friendly in topics, explanations and outputs. The minimal style is simple, precise and aesthetic. Self-paced learning helped me follow along and rewatch whenever needed. Overall, zero complaints."
"I'm a municipal planner, and one of my biggest goals was to hone my digital drawing skills. This course filled in so many of those gaps and gave me the confidence to start integrating more visual storytelling into my planning."
"Incredibly insightful and well-structured. The clear explanations and visual approach made complex concepts feel much more approachable. It truly helped me understand and analyse my site better."
"Accessible, simple and well-structured. The instructions are clear, and the exercise is great for practicing. I learned lots of useful tips for my future projects — and it was fun too."
"I was nervous coming in as a beginner, but by following the instructions and feedback I created every practice file with ease. I was really shocked I was able to do this. Looking forward to applying my new skills in school and my portfolio!"
"You learn a SPECIFIC WORKFLOW to photoshop your plans, make collages and transform a simple render into a beautiful illustration — without watching 100 YouTube tutorials. The resources and brushes were essential for me."
"Among the most useful workshops I've ever attended. I've used Photoshop for a while, but never knew how to effectively use it for architectural representations. The pace was excellent and the resource library is invaluable."
"Vishakha is an exceptional tutor. She taught not only her way of working but also how important the quality of presentation is for architecture. Even as a beginner I learned a lot I hope to apply soon."
"Quite helpful for upgrading my skills. I learned new techniques and long-standing doubts were cleared — the masking tool I used to struggle with became so easy. Will definitely keep using these techniques."

Proof, not promises
Real drawings from past students — the same techniques and workflows you'll learn inside.
The problem you know too well
Your concept diagram looks cluttered instead of clear. Your site map reads like a technical submission, not a design statement. Your sections and plans are accurate but lifeless, and you're not sure how to fix them.
Visual communication is the skill architecture school skips over. These courses teach it directly: from 2D drawing clarity to 3D depth to the diagrammatic thinking that makes complex ideas land instantly.
Offer ends 12 July, 11:59pm BST
What you'll learn
Take a concept from rough sketch to a clear, communicative drawing: site analysis, concept diagrams, detail drawings and 2D illustrations that actually explain your design thinking.
Move from SketchUp to Illustrator and CAD to Illustrator with a workflow that gives your 3D visuals depth, graphic consistency, and a professional finish across every stage of the project.
Not one polished drawing, but a complete set: analysis maps, concept graphics, technical illustrations and 3D renders that all speak the same visual language from first sketch to final presentation.
Bring together your drawings, diagrams and renders into presentations that guide the eye, tell a clear story, and hold up in front of studios, clients and juries.
Who it's for
You're a student or early-career architect who knows your design thinking is stronger than your portfolio shows. You've been told your work needs to "look more professional" and you're not sure where to start. You're applying for jobs, internships, or awards — and you want your submission to stand out.
"As a Landscape Architecture Grad student I have to do a lot of diagrams but I could not make them look so crisp and professional like my classmates. But after this course it provided me with confidence and tools to make professional diagrams and illustrate my ideas effectively."
Meet the Founder
Architect & Urban Designer
Driven by a deep understanding of the built environment along with a keen eye for detail and a penchant for minimalistic visuals, I began my journey as an urban designer. Starting out drafting site plans and elevations at an esteemed University in India, I went on to pursue my Master's in Urban Design from the University of Westminster.
When the pandemic hit in 2020, I returned to my hometown in India, and from that turning point emerged Architecture Candy, an Instagram page sharing my love of architecture through visuals. What started small quickly grew into collaborations with talented studios and architects worldwide.
What truly fuels me is the chance to empower others. I believe every designer can create compelling visuals, and as a mentor and course creator, I strive to equip architects and designers with the skills to visually narrate their stories.
40% off all courses and 50% off bundles. After 12th July at midnight, it's gone.
Sale runs 8 to 12 July only.
