Our Story
Shaping the Future of Architecture Education
Since 2019, Pinnacle IIT has been India's trusted partner for professional design training — combining industry expertise with hands-on, placement-focused learning.
Who We Are
More Than a Training Institute
We are an ecosystem built around one belief: that the right skills, learned the right way, open doors that talent alone cannot.
Who We Are
Pinnacle IIT is a premier architecture and design training institute based in Mumbai, India. Founded in 2019, we specialise in professional software training for architects, interior designers, and civil engineers — with students across India and Germany.
Our curriculum is constantly updated to reflect what top firms actually use and demand — not textbook theory, but live-project skills.
What We Do
We train professionals in the full design technology stack — from 2D drafting in AutoCAD to BIM workflows in Revit, photorealistic rendering in 3ds Max, V-Ray & Lumion, and parametric design in Rhino + Grasshopper.
Every course is structured for real employability: project-based, mentor-led, and backed by our 95% placement support network spanning 50+ hiring companies.
