Switch Art

An art catalogue where new collections and artists are published without touching the layout.

@switchart

A rotating catalogue of artists and collections was being rebuilt by hand every season. Modelling artists, works, and collections as related content turned each season from a project into a publishing task.

01
Model the relationships

Linked artists, works, and collections so each page assembles itself from the others.
02
Design for the artwork

Kept the interface quiet so the work is the only thing competing for attention.
03
Publish seasonally

Built a collection template so a new season is an entry to fill in, not a rebuild.
