INSD Trivandrum students and faculty members participated in AUDACIA 2026, a three-day celebration held at DC School of Architecture & Design, Vagamon, from January 30 to February 1, 2026.
The event brought together students and faculty from different creative fields for a lively combination of workshops, interactive sessions, competitions, games, music, and cultural activities.

INSD Trivandrum at AUDACIA 2026
Students of INSD Trivandrum took part in the various activities organised during the fest. Faculty members from both fields also attended and participated in the event, making it a valuable experience for the entire team.
The three days offered something different for everyone. Students explored creative workshops during the day, while games, competitions, and cultural activities added to the excitement.
Events like AUDACIA allow students to step outside their regular classroom environment. They can interact with students from other institutions, discover new perspectives, and participate in activities that encourage creativity and teamwork.
Workshops and Creative Learning
Workshops were an important part of AUDACIA 2026. They gave students the chance to explore ideas and skills through interactive learning.
One of the notable sessions was a live sketching session conducted by INSD Trivandrum faculty member Ar. Sandeep Suresh. As an alumnus of DC School of Architecture & Design, his participation added a special connection to the event.
His live sketching session was among the sessions presented by alumni at the fest. It created an opportunity for students to observe sketching techniques and engage with a creative professional who had studied at the same institution.
For students pursuing Interior Design courses at INSD Trivandrum, sessions involving sketching and visual communication can offer useful exposure beyond their regular academic routine.
Games, Competitions and Team Spirit
AUDACIA 2026 was also filled with games and competitions that encouraged students to participate as teams and enjoy the experience together.
Activities such as the treasure hunt added an element of excitement to the fest. Students worked together, followed clues, explored the campus, and competed with other participants.
Along with the treasure hunt, various games and competitions kept the campus active throughout the event. These activities encouraged communication, quick thinking, coordination, and teamwork while creating plenty of fun moments.
Fashion and Interior Design Students Come Together
With students and faculty members from both Fashion Design and Interior Design, AUDACIA offered an opportunity for the INSD Trivandrum community to come together in a different setting.
Design education involves more than developing technical skills. Interaction, observation, communication, teamwork, and creative thinking also contribute to a student’s overall development.
The workshops and activities at AUDACIA complemented the practical approach followed at INSD Trivandrum, where students get opportunities to participate in creative activities, workshops, and industry-oriented experiences.
Days Full of Creativity, Nights Full of Energy
While the daytime focused on workshops and activities, the evenings brought a completely different atmosphere.
The campus came alive with DJ nights, dance battles, music, cheers, games, and celebrations. Students from different colleges came together to enjoy the performances and entertainment.
For the INSD Trivandrum students, these moments were about more than entertainment. They created opportunities to make new friends, interact with other students, and enjoy the social side of college life.
Learning Beyond the Classroom
AUDACIA 2026 showed how learning can take place in different environments. Workshops introduced students to new creative approaches, while competitions encouraged teamwork and problem-solving.
The participation of faculty members also added an academic perspective to the experience. Their presence allowed students to interact with their mentors in a more informal environment while experiencing the fest together.
For students interested in developing their design skills, opportunities such as Fashion Design programs at INSD Trivandrum combine classroom learning with practical activities and creative exposure.
A Memorable Three Days in Vagamon
From January 30 to February 1, 2026, AUDACIA transformed the DC School of Architecture & Design campus into a lively space filled with creativity, learning, competition, music, and celebration.
For INSD Trivandrum students and faculty members, the experience included creative workshops, an alumni-led live sketching session, treasure hunts, games, competitions, dance, music, and plenty of opportunities to connect with others.
Days were filled with creativity and learning, while the nights brought music, energy, and celebration.
