Fifteen Years of Craft. Taught First-Hand, Not From a Textbook.

The Adorre Training Programme is a hands-on, intensive design education led personally by Faisal Tanwar, open to designers, architects and design enthusiasts from anywhere in the world. Selected participants are invited to train in China, in small batches of ten, for one immersive week.

Why This Programme Exists

After fifteen years of building projects across India, China, Africa and Canada, Faisal Tanwar noticed the same gap everywhere he worked: design education teaches theory, but rarely the real, on-ground decision-making that separates a good designer from a great one, how to read a client brief, source intelligently, manage a site, and style a space so it feels finished rather than furnished.

The Adorre Training Programme was built to close that gap. It is not a lecture series. It is a working apprenticeship compressed into one intensive week, taught directly by Faisal and drawing on real projects, real vendors and real sourcing networks.
