Domus India is the Indian edition of the internationally renowned Italian magazine on architecture and design. Led by editor Kaiwan Mehta, the publication had traditionally featured a photographic image of the main feature story on each cover.

Through a series of conversations, we encouraged a shift toward a more interpretive approach—using illustration to abstractly represent the featured project. The idea was to break from convention and open the door for a more expressive and varied visual language on the cover.

We designed four covers across four issues, each translating the lead story into a unique illustrated form. This initiative set the tone for future collaborations, inviting other design studios to contribute their own stylistic interpretations in subsequent issues.
