Process

Singing Forest, or Skogen Sjunger in Swedish, is a call to action and a song by the climate activist Andreas Magnusson and singer-songwriter Anna Vild, resulting in the website skogensjunger.se, translated to english at singingforest.se.

The theme of the website draws heavily on the swedish pine and spruce forests, using tree sillouettes in multiple layers. The prominently dark green colour scheme was also chosen for this reason, with lighter coloured accents. To keep it simple, the entire site fits on one page.

I used GatsbyJS, along with Typescript and SCSS for the site, making animating the song “player”, as well as easily exporting the site in both Swedish and English a breeze.
