Rationale
For this Kaitiakitanga Project, my idea was to impart
knowledge to tell the story of earthquakes in the Wellington
region; earthquakes around Wellington
being the subject of my Puna Project. My approach was to use humour to try and
make the idea of earthquakes approachable to the general public while still informing
them. To contrast the mess caused by an earthquake, I made my site clean and
easy to navigate, with minimal information and statistics bombarding the user;
choosing to use mostly textures rather than full images to convey my tone. This
makes the site more appealing and dynamic, setting it apart from pre-existing
earthquake information sites. The limited colour palette reinforces this,
directing the gaze to the important bites of information.
