occine started as a film magazine and still runs one. Around it sits the part most people arrive for: a marketplace for physical media, and a catalogue of the shops still worth the trip.
The marketplace is member to member. Members list what they own, mark it for sale or for trade, and deal with each other directly. There is no stock and no shipping desk. What is listed is what somebody actually has on a shelf.
The store directory covers thirty-six independent Blu-ray and DVD shops across twenty-six European cities, Paris, London, Berlin, Amsterdam and Barcelona among them, with a page for each one. It answers a question that is harder to search than it should be: where can you still buy physical media.
How we work
Strategy
We start with the problem, not the medium. Research and architecture come before any pixel or line of code.
Design
Interface design, motion, identity. Everything is built to ship, not to present.
Engineering
Full-stack production from front-end to infrastructure. We write, deploy and maintain what we design.
