Tęczowy Tarnów — homepage

Context

Tęczowy Tarnów works for safety, education, and inclusion for the LGBTQIA+ community in Tarnów and the surrounding area. They needed a hub site: mission, Equality Centre, institutional partnership, support, and contact — calm, accessible, and credible. The current version runs on Astro as a static site: fast, light, easy to host and maintain.

Goal

I designed and delivered an Astro (SSG) site that:

  • presents the mission (“Our Pole of Love!”) and organisational work,
  • documents the Tarnów Equality Centre (space, equipment, gallery, PDF report),
  • leads to support (Support us! CTA), contact, and collaboration,
  • offers an English version plus practical content (FAQ, partnership guide).

My role

I owned design, solution design, implementation, and up to 30 days of post-launch care.

Scope

  • homepage: hero, About, learn more / contact CTAs,
  • Tarnów Equality Centre — venue description (~50 m²), accessibility, equipment, gallery, activity report PDF,
  • social cooperation guide (NGOs, schools, institutions; TCR and One Tree Garden),
  • FAQ (partnership, support, event participation, contact),
  • footer with association details, map, and documents,
  • social links (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok) and EN switch,
  • accessibility affordances (including quick access / a11y widget).

Partnership guide

FAQ and contact

Approach

I chose Astro (static site generation) over a heavy CMS: NGO content changes less often than a shop, and priorities are speed, simple hosting, and repo-based control. Structure moves from emotion and mission (hero) to concrete paths (Centre, partnership, FAQ, support) — without aggressive marketing.

Challenges

  • Many threads in one organisation — centre, garden, education, support, fundraising. Clear menu and dedicated pages instead of one block.
  • Multiple audiences — community, allies, institutions; the partnership guide and FAQ shorten the path to collaboration.
  • Static ≠ stale — PDF reports, support CTA, and current contact details keep the site alive without a CMS panel.

Outcome

The organisation has a fast live static site (teczowytarnow.pl) on Astro — a hub for mission, the Equality Centre, and local partnership. I provided up to 30 days of post-launch care after go-live.
