Cultural website roast as a format has definitely potential :) i’ve been recently to Berlin Philharmonie and what worked well on the website for me are the stories about the building and main concert hall by Hans Scharoun. When searching for the information on Google the Stories appear on top positions. But thinking about it hindsight, the aspect of space (one of the big attractions of the visit for first-time v
*first-time visitors) is missing on the landing page - it doesn’t communicate how important the building is for the experience. It probably assumes you know something already.
I agree, I think those content pages are probably super interesting if you're very engaged, or looking for stuff about the building, but it follows the pattern of not making any allowances for first-timers/less engaged folks.
It is a lot of dense information, all presented in quite an overwhelming way.

I was desperately trying to avoid the roast!
