Overview

The brief.

We rebuilt Bekhinese's identity from the wordmark up — typography, grid, motion signature and a companion digital home for its archive.

Challenge

What was in the way.

Preserve the weight and gravitas of a print publication while unlocking a modern subscriber flow that reads well on screen.

Approach

How we responded.

A custom display serif, a strict two-column archive, and a subscription page designed like a magazine spread. The identity travels from cover to inbox to storefront.
