Luxury lifestyle and brand content for Bentley Motors
Exciting and engaging high net worth individuals across the globe
Client: Bentley Motors
Sector: Automotive | Luxury
Dialogue was tasked with redesigning the existing Bentley Magazine into a modern luxury publication which would engage both existing and prospective customers – reflecting the quality of the brand’s marque and its luxury lifestyle associations.
Bentley Motors is a global leader in luxury automotive, with a reputation for the highest quality vehicles and customer services. The design and editorial content of the magazine had to appeal to the brand’s loyal and new customers across global markets.

We designed a modern luxury magazine that moved the reader experience from just 2D to an interactive multi-channel one. Design principles were based around making each issue memorable, collectable and uniquely Bentley. We designed brand playability into the front covers by adding some personality to the Bentley ‘B’ as it moves around the cover interacting with the lead subject matter.
We adopted ‘anti-design’ principles throughout layouts to make the magazine more contemporary while still retaining a luxury high-quality feel. Co-ordinating, commissioning and attending multiple photoshoots across the world, the Dialogue team are meticulous in ensuring the best photography is delivered for the magazine.
The magazine has a healthy balance of Bentley product and luxury lifestyle stories, written by top journalists, and has attracted new advertisers who align with Bentley's luxury principles, strengthening the overall commercial performance.
