Samurai story chapters
Collection highlights
The experience
The Still Blade brings artwork, objects, and short stories into one reading experience. Armour and woodblock prints introduce the collection before the page moves into the samurai code, legends, and the changing seasons.
Two languages
English and Japanese controls switch the navigation and editorial text in place. Japanese lettering remains part of the visual identity in both modes, giving the two versions a shared character.
Beyond the landing page
Blossom, maple, and snow each have a dedicated seasonal route. A map introduces five places across Japan, while the main page connects the collection, stories, and contact section into a longer browsing journey.
The live project is available on Vercel, built with Next.js and React.
