Summary

Fossil Free Caribe is a nonprofit advocating for climate justice and sustainable energy in the Caribbean. They came to us with a strong brand book designed by Pupila (https://www.pupila.co/) and the urgent need for a digital platform. The challenge: deliver an MVP website in time for their participation at the United Nations Ocean Conference in France.


The Challenge

  • Urgent Deadline: Site needed to be live before the Ocean Conference.

  • Fresh Brand Assets: Pupila’s brand book had to be translated into a digital identity quickly.

  • Content Prioritization: Decide what core pages and content would go into the MVP while planning for future scalability.


Our Strategy

We focused on speed without compromising brand consistency or scalability. The plan:

  • Rapidly prototype layouts in Figma.

  • Implement Pupila’s design system into responsive templates.

  • Prioritize key content (about, campaigns, and calls to action) for launch.

  • Build an MVP foundation flexible enough to expand post-conference.


Execution

  • Delivered the MVP website on time for the Ocean Conference.

  • Created a WordPress structure optimized for speed, flexibility, and scalability.

  • Designed clear navigation and content blocks for campaigns, advocacy, and updates.

  • Integrated visual storytelling aligned with Pupila’s design direction.


Adaptation & Evolution

After the conference, we extended the MVP into a more complete platform:

  • Expanded content sections for reports, campaigns, and news.

  • Optimized site performance for ongoing advocacy.

  • Built a scalable framework so Fossil Free Caribe can continue to grow their online presence.


Results

  • On-time launch for a major international event.

  • Brand-consistent website that amplified their message on a global stage.

  • Adapted platform now serving as a hub for climate action campaigns in the Caribbean.
