A map that answers back
Seventeen locations on one island, each with something to say — and a map you query rather than read.
Highlights
Rebuilt a PowerPoint map as a real web interaction — seventeen hotspots across four categories, with the original illustration, icon geometry and hotspot positions kept exactly where they were.
Gave it the things a deck cannot have: filtering by category, search by name, previous/next within a category, pan, pinch and zoom, and a reset.
Added a guided tour for visitors who would rather be shown than hunt — six seconds a stop, pausable, and it steps aside the moment someone clicks a location themselves.
Result
Every control reachable by keyboard, Escape to dismiss, and a reduced-motion preference that turns the decoration off and starts the tour paused rather than running.
Built with
A concept piece. The locations, descriptions and area figures are invented for the deck this was built from — not tourism information. The web version reinterprets the original PowerPoint animation rather than replaying it.
