Belaku is a lighting design project where material intelligence, craft, and social purpose converge. Conceived by Tacit in collaboration with Chetana —an occupational and rehabilitation organisation in Sirsi, Karnataka—the project designs meaningful products that empower artisans, celebrate sustainable materials, and create new pathways into contemporary markets. Lighting Design with Banana Fibre Chetana Foundation: Purpose rooted in dignity and craft Chetana is an initiat

Natyasastra - Book Volumes Some books don’t just carry content—they carry a civilization’s memory. Bharata Muni’s Nāṭyaśāstra is one of those works: a foundational text for Indian aesthetics and performance traditions, and a living reference point for how we think about art, expression, and human emotion. When Indica chose Nāṭyaśāstra as the inaugural offering of the INDICA Classical Library , the ambition was clear: create an edition that honors the gravitas of the text wh

BaseRock.ai ’s brand had to do a tricky thing: communicate rigorous engineering precision while still feeling friendly, modern, and usable for developers who just want results. Tacit’s identity solution lands in that sweet spot by making the brand feel like a dependable “bedrock” for quality assurance, yet visually energetic enough to signal an AI-native product built for speed. Logogram At the heart of the identity is the ROX logo , where a squirrel becomes the brand’s sh

Foundation Website When a foundation matures, the story can’t remain abstract. That’s exactly the pivot behind the Aastrika Foundation redesign: moving communication from “we care about maternal health” to “here is the progress, here are the gaps, and here is what we’re doing about them.” Tacit’s design approach frames the project as a comprehensive articulation across channels— website, presentations, and social media —with a clear aim: highlight tangible progress , provide
