Recurring interface patterns

HORTUS uses repeated interface structures across modules.

Learning them once improves navigation everywhere.

1. Filters pattern

Where:

  • Projects, Events, Marketplace, Experts

Structure:

  • list of items
  • filters on side or top
  • sorting options

Use:

  • refine results
  • narrow down large datasets

2. Tabbed detail layout

Where:

  • project pages
  • resources
  • events
  • expert profiles

Typical tabs:

  • Overview
  • Metadata
  • Discussions
  • Participants
  • Documents

Use:

  • switch context without leaving the page
  • explore structured information

3. Action rail (right-side controls)

Common actions:

  • share
  • favourite
  • follow
  • register (events)
  • edit / delete (if permitted)

Tip:

  • Always check the right side first to see what actions are available

4. Search + refine workflow

Typical flow:

  • Global search → broad discovery
  • Module filters → precise selection
  • Detail page → evaluation

This pattern is used across almost all user journeys.
