Edwin Booth Award - Mimi Lien

This project was definitely the most unusual of all the sites I've built so far.

The design embraces the timeless, analog ASCII aesthetic, and the whole experience is organized as different "rooms" of a ground plan, rather than pages.

The Edwin Booth Award is a recognition of theatrical excellence, presented by the CUNY Graduate Center in New York City.
Normally, there's a ceremony to present the award to the recipient, but due to COVID-19, that was unable to happen this year. Instead, the board had the idea to create an online experience to highlight the artist's work.

I worked alongside the artist (Mimi Lien), as well as a couple Booth Award board members to build a unique experience that encapsulated both Mimi's work, and had a timeless feel.

Building this project, I learned a good bit about CSS border-image and asset optimization (there are a lot of videos for one page)!

Built with Webflow and hosted on Netlify.
