La Cuccu – everything about the cuccumella
BA Practice Based Course
2021
semester
We wanted to establish a space for community and friendship, where people could foster and share their mutual love for Italy and coffee, in particular the cuccumella. We included voiceovers so that visually-impaired members of the community wouldn’t feel at a disadvantage, and would be able to benefit just as much as anyone else from the content on offer. This concept of absolute inclusion was fundamental and paramount for the ultimate purpose our website. Beneath this, as a secondary but still highly important priority, was our attempt to replicate the mood and atmosphere of an Italian bar, which we did through the use of colours and background music. In essence, we endeavoured to create a space in which everyone simply feels comfortable and happy.
