SportAs - Online presence
Background
The Sportas is an area in the south of Amsterdam where various sports venues, university and academy campuses and leisure areas are situated in one place. It’s Amsterdam’s center of gravity for sports, education, science, culture and business. As part of its rebranding, a new digital presence was necessary.
Challenge
Sportas has multiple vibrant social media channels, like Facebook and Twitter. Displaying its content solely in these channels would be a shame. We wanted to find a way to intertwine the website’s content and information with the social media content, thereby creating an inspiring and informative platform as fresh and ever-changing as can be.
The idea
We designed and built a website that relies heavily on photos and videos, creating a big mosaic of the various venues and activities in the area. The tiles are fully responsive, enabling the website to be viewed on smartphones, tablets and laptops. The dynamic map is an easy way to discover every single venue, sorted by category. Social media content is embedded in the website content, displaying status updates and photo albums from Facebook, as well as tweets and YouTube uploads.
