01The challenge

A magazine with strong writing and a grid that could not carry it.

02The idea

Silence as material: enormous margins, one typeface, cinematic pacing.

03The identity

A 12-column modular system, bespoke type scale and a very short set of layout rules.

04The result

Subscriptions doubled and two international editorial design awards.
