matarii.pf — homepage in Raro season, Polynesian cultural design
· The brief /01

Reflect a culture,
not decorate.

280,000 potential Polynesians, 3 languages, a calendar of cultural events, an institutional weight to carry. The brief: a site that culturally anchors the institution — not a generic WordPress theme with palm trees.

· Design /02

Two seasons,
two visual identities.

Unique seasonal design: the site palette changes according to the Matari'i calendar — Ni'a season (abundance, November) glows, Raro season (introspection, May) calms. The visitor understands they're stepping into a living culture from the moment they arrive.
