alisch berlec hönow is an interdisciplinary design studio that develops bespoke visual identities, websites, publications, and immersive experiences in both physical and digital spaces for individuals, institutions, and businesses of all sizes and budgets, across the fields of art, culture, design, and commerce.
With a background firmly rooted in graphic design and its intellectual and creative methodologies, and a limitless curiosity for emerging technologies, we operate at the intersection of tradition and modernity, constantly expanding our horizons to explore progressive visual languages and pioneering production techniques.
We uncover and articulate underlying contexts, aspirations, and values while critically engaging with both theoretical and practical challenges in each project. We continuously interrogate aesthetic perceptions and functional conventions–allowing us to move beyond superficial visuals to create unique narratives and deeper meanings that transcend any aesthetic, medium, or space.
Alongside our practical work, we are deeply committed to share our knowledge and experience by teaching classes, giving lectures, and conducting workshops on typography, book and screen design, and time-based media at various institutions and universities.




With a content-driven and conceptual approach, we design unique, meaningful, and long-lasting visual communication that captivates the senses and evokes a deep emotional resonance.
