Case Study: Polinations achieves creative, sustainable digital experiences with Directus

Pushing Design Boundaries with Directus UK Branding Agency Builds Innovative Digital Experiences to Promote Diversity & Sustainability

Polinations, an event in Edinburgh and Birmingham celebrating culture, identity, and migration, needed a website and an interactive companion app to promote the experience and generate personalized 3D flowers. Peter and Paul, working with Megaverse, chose Directus as the headless CMS because their previous setup couldn’t provide the REST and GraphQL APIs needed for both web and app experiences.

With Directus, the team built a flexible content layer for the website and app, using its out-of-the-box content management features, permissions, and APIs to deliver real-time data and fast responses in milliseconds. Directus also supported a more sustainable static-site approach with Astro, reducing server load and power usage while giving the developer confidence to tackle a highly interactive project.
