The Key Relaunch

What we did
Editorial Design · Print Production · Bilingual Communications · Workflow Design · Institutional Storytelling · Publication Design


Reviving Saint Peter’s historic quarterly journal through bilingual editorial workflows, print production systems, and digital expansion.

The problem

The Key was Saint Peter’s Church’s quarterly community journal, published from the 1960s until it eventually went out of print. Over the decades, it documented the life of the church and its wider community.

In the 1970s, the publication was redesigned by Massimo Vignelli and Henry Altchek, establishing the iconic visual identity that became closely associated with Saint Peter’s.

How we solved it

In 2025, we revisited The Key by deeply engaging with its historic visual identity and editorial legacy. We co-developed a clear production workflow, supported content collection efforts, and conducted interviews to help shape each issue’s narrative and direction.

Today, The Key continues both in print — preserving the Vignelli design legacy — and in digital formats that expand accessibility through additional content and multilingual translations.
