Conceptual apparel was created to help expand the venue’s presence and engage with its audience. The designs primarily used existing brand elements and established brand colors to help reduce potential production costs.
The website combines bold colors with gritty textures to reflect the grunge aesthetic. Spotify links, event details, and band information are all integrated directly into the experience to make exploring new music feel quick and accessible.
Before coding the final website, prototypes were created in Figma to establish the overall layout, design style, and how elements would scale across different page widths. Some elements were simplified or removed during development to improve the overall user experience.
