OVERVIEW
Shibuya is one of Tokyo’s most famous destinations, yet it requires no tickets and no queuing. In fact, the more people, the better. An astounding 3,000 people can cross it at each two-minute light interval.

A 360˚ panorama experience was used to help bring the words of CNBC editorial's Monica Buchanan Pitrelli to life whilst showcasing some of the little known facts about the destination. Using popup info boxes, video and photography, I designed and developed this microsite injecting elements inspired by Japanese culture, using strong red colours and a minimalistic graphic / typographic design approach for the UI.
