The challenge
Selling a place as much as an event
Echoes From Agartha is a journey to Cappadocia, a UNESCO World Heritage landscape of fairy chimneys and underground cities. The site had to give that feeling before it listed any details.
Our approach
Film-like pages led by images
We designed the site around full-screen video and the festival's night-time photography, in a dark palette with a film-style theme on WordPress and Elementor.
Five pages, one story
Home opens with a video. Then Experience describes the journey, History tells Cappadocia's story from the Hittites onwards, Sustainability covers the festival's carbon and energy plans, and Contact closes it.

Other things we built and run
BM Mobil
We took over a corporate WordPress site after a security incident. We regained control safely, checked it for backdoors (hidden ways in), closed the common entry points and gave the business a ranked upgrade plan. We also designed its vehicle tracking app.
Mini Moca Sweden
Mini Moca Sweden makes soft leather shoes and slippers for babies and young children. We built its Swedish and English website on WordPress, with a product catalogue organised by collection, a size guide, care and delivery FAQs and pages for resellers and sustainability.
