01 · The brief

Four content streams publishing in parallel — leadership statements, national and religious observances, remembrance posts and chapter news — at national volume, in Urdu and English, with no let-up.

02 · Constraints

  • 01Statements published within hours of the news they answer
  • 02Portraits of very different vintage and quality
  • 03Observances recurring on a fixed calendar every year
  • 04Urdu, English and Arabic on the same assets

03 · Approach

A template per stream

Each stream gets its own frame. Statements are quote bands, remembrance is a portrait-and-dates grid, observances are calligraphy-led. The streams never borrow each other's layout.

Six colourways, one grid

The remembrance series runs green, blue, brown, maroon, cream and near-black on an identical grid — distinct posts that are obviously one series.

Statements as stacked bands

Three claims, three coloured bands, read top to bottom in a single scroll. Fast to produce under news pressure.

Counter-programme deliberately

The Youm-e-Haya post is purple precisely because the day it answers is red.

04 · What was delivered

All four stream templates and the thirty-seven assets produced from them.

  • Leadership and press frames
  • Observance series
  • Remembrance template
  • Chapter announcements
  • Session campaign artwork

About this project

How do you publish at national volume without the work drifting?

By giving each content stream its own template. Statements are quote bands, remembrance is a portrait-and-dates grid, observances are calligraphy-led — and the streams never borrow each other's layout.

Six colourways on one grid — why not six designs?

Because a series has to be recognisable as a series. Identical structure with a different palette gives each post its own identity while making the set obviously one thing.
