People often ask us what kind of design studio TACIT is. The answer usually depends on which project they have encountered first. Some know us through books such as Srimad Ramayana or Natyasastra. Others know us through games like Jeewanu and Samiti. Some have experienced our work through exhibitions, memorials, environmental graphics, healthcare communication systems, or digital platforms.

As designers and by designing, we hope to become better listeners, sensitive creators and responsible members of ecosystems. Everyday we engage with our collaborators who struggle in finding sense of current realities, meanings and connections with ever-changing cultural world. We walk together in discoverin
