The Freedom Fighters Memorial in Chikmagalur , inaugurated on Gandhi Jayanti by the Brigade Foundation , stands at Hosamane Circle as a place of remembrance, reflection, and resolve. More than a commemorative structure, the memorial is conceived as a civic space—one that invites citizens, especially young minds, to encounter the values, sacrifices, and courage that shaped India’s freedom struggle.

In June 2025 , the Venkatappa Art Gallery in Bengaluru reopened after an extensive restoration led by the Brigade Foundation , marking both its Golden Jubilee and a renewed chapter in the city’s cultural life. This historic institution—originally established in 1975 to honour the multifaceted legacy of painter-sculptor K. Venkatappa —has long been central to Karnataka’s artistic identity.

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

More than “explaining concepts,” the series leans into how scient

Nitya Prarthana, Books for Chanting Designing Nitya Prārthanā and Nitya Dhyāna is an exercise in restraint—because these books aren’t meant to be “read” the way most books are. They’re meant to be used : held in the hand, returned to daily, and relied upon as a steady textual aid for learning and practicing Vedic chanting. Tacit’s design response starts from that lived reality of practice, shaping the books as quiet companions for students and teachers within the sacred Hin

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
