The Handbook of Creative & Cultural Industries of India

Designing the Pulse of Creative India.

The Handbook of Creative & Cultural Industries of India was designed to capture the vibrant, youthful spirit of India’s creative economy. A bold colour-coding system—green for start-ups, blue for spaces, pink for experts, and yellow for incubators—makes navigation seamless while adding visual energy. Hand-drawn icons, custom illustrations, and textured backgrounds lend a tactile, human-centered aesthetic that reflects the grassroots nature of the initiatives. Visual storytelling is central, with thoughtfully curated imagery and graphics enhancing readability and engagement. The design strikes a balance between playful modernism and editorial clarity, reinforcing the handbook’s role as a celebration of cultural innovation.
