Connecticut Orchestra Month

A new website for a state-wide virtuosic collaboration.

COMPANY: Sametz Blackstone
TEAM: Samar Ibrahim / Art Director, Alex Budnitz / Art Director, Sara Hartleben / Designer
SCOPE: Identity, Website Design

Overview

Led by the Hartford Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra Lumos (two previous Sametz clients), as well as New Haven Symphony Orchestra, this statewide celebration brings together musicians from across Connecticut. To properly advertise this across the 20+ participating orchestras' platforms, we created a unifying brand and website for the occasion. The Orchestra Month identifier comes in various colors so each orchestra can choose which works best with their own color palette.

Figma Wireframes

I started out by building each block in Figma, then built the pages needed out once the copy was written.

Takeaways

This was a great exercise in exploring the capabilities of Figma wireframing—especially as I familiarize myself with the auto-layout capabilities of editable components.
