Design by Paper Paper

Palazzo Monti is an artist residency in Brescia, founded by Edoardo Monti. Together with Paper Paper, we created a website that reflects the character of the palazzo and its founder’s approach to bringing artists, ideas and people together.

The experience centres on horizontal scrolling, inviting visitors to explore the residency, its artists and its programme through an unconventional layout.

Working from Paper Paper’s design, we developed the navigation, animations and interactions, shaping how visitors move between visual content and practical information.

Visit website

Photographs, artist lists and press materials each call for a different way of browsing. We developed scrolling behaviour and transitions around these formats: images unfold in sequence, while lists and resources offer more direct access to information. The challenge was to preserve the website’s exploratory character while keeping each type of content easy to navigate.
