Auxilium School of Interior Design was founded in Chennai in 1989 by Mathew Jacob Chakramakal, with one goal: to make a genuine, professional interior design education accessible to anyone, anywhere — without the cost or years of a full-time college. Every assignment is still personally reviewed by the founder, a practice that has earned praise from architects and engineers alike.

"It was an extremely delightful experience to complete my first assignment — very informative and interesting. Since I am a working woman with a small one-year-old baby, I don't get much time during the day, but the course is simplified to a great extent, so I can complete it at my own pace."
