Mod Foundation is an interdisciplinary urban design and research institute based in Bengaluru, India, established in 2010. The collective brings together architects, designers, researchers, curators, and practitioners working at the intersection of urbanisation, infrastructure, and public life.

Mod Foundation is the urban design and research arm of Venkataramanan Associates (VA), an architecture, interiors, and urban design practice headquartered in Bengaluru.
