The context
What this website is for.
A nine-day, city-wide festival for the Philippine design community — the site has to deliver urgency and scale in the first viewport, then get out of the way for browsing.
Visitors arrive with one of three questions: what is on, who is speaking, and which pass they need. The architecture answers them in that order.
What the site has to do
- Make the dates and the scale unmistakable in the first screen.
- Keep the program browsable by day without hiding anything behind a filter.
- Give speakers and passes their own paths from the homepage.
- Answer the logistics — venues, transport, access — on one page.
