Kulttuuribussi is a website created for city of Kotka's children's culture center's project called also Kulttuuribussi. The Kulttuuribussi project's goal is to bring culture directly to children and their families throughtout Kotka and enable cultural experiences for those families who don't have the opportunity to access art institutions or cultural experiences. Every child has the right to art and culture, and the project tries to strengthen this right.
The first version of the website was done by me and art by Sirumilla, but the site has changed a bit since we left the project and I don't know who's in charge of the current look of the site.
My job was to be in charge of the technical implementation of the site and Siru was supposed to design the layout and color palette, and do some art, but aside from the art, we designed everything together. We didn't get much from the client side, all they wanted was a, "colorful and fun, like a children's book", unique website targeted to children and their families. In the beginning of the project we worked quite closely with the client and had meetings every week or two but then they got so busy with the project that they kind of left us hanging on our own. Little by little we were told not to implement some features and in the end, the website got left unfinished because we didn't get any content despite several queries.
