See and Be SĒN

Congrats to designer Michael Nguyen and the gang at SĒN Baltimore magazine for the launch this week of senbaltimore.com, powered by Big Medium 2.
Devoted to chronicling Baltimore nightlife, the site’s design is appropriately edgy and hip, putting Big Medium’s photo and gallery features to particularly good use.
At its club-loving heart, though, the site is first and foremost an online magazine, a companion to its glossy bi-monthly paper version. “I couldn’t have done it without Big Medium,” Michael tells me. (Shucks, Mike, happy to help.)
It’s early days for the site—the restaurant listings are still to come—but the first of the content in the site’s music and club sections seems promising. Nice work.
