Description

Currently, the global navigation menu ("Living", "Working", "Learning"...) takes up important space and often has information that isn't relevant to a visitor. We should move this menu to be behind a menu button on all pages except the home page. We do this currently on mobile only.

Research direction

Start by locating the global navigation implementation and comparing its existing mobile menu-button behavior with the desktop layout. Check how the home page differs from other pages, then verify that the navigation is off-screen behind the menu button on every non-home page across desktop and mobile.
