Prof. Kakani is a practicing architect based out of Ahmedabad since 23 years. He finished his diploma degree in architecture from School of Architecture in Vallabh Vidyanagar. He pursued his masters in the same field from the University of California in Los Angeles and has been a visiting lecturer at CEPT, NID and other colleges and institutes in India.

CEPT had appreciated his architecture practices as it focuses on problems concerning conservation of resources, keeping in mind sustainability and accuracy as a prime design challenge. He is known to have built several industrial units and institutions which are eco-friendly. He also once used the earthquake rubble for constructing walls in a school at Rajkot.

To initiate the search for CEPT's new Dean of Faculty of Architecture, a search and selection committee, comprising of Dr. Bimal Patel, Christopher Benninger, Vidyadhar Phatak and A Srivathsan was constituted to appoint the most suitable candidate.
