Founded by the Swiss private bank Pictet & Cie, the Prix Pictet is recognised as ‘the global award in photography & sustainability’. In my role as senior designer at Scheybeler+company, I worked on the information architecture, user experience, web typography, design, and build of a new multi-thematic website to help transition the award from its second theme, ‘Earth’, to its third cycle, ‘Growth’.
The key to making the site work long-term was separating theme-specific from non-theme-specific content. By placing each theme into its own microsite, we created a clear archiving structure that allowed users to easily explore all past and present work.
