Specimens are the page's own words at their measured metrics; shown in Inter when the family is not loaded.
- 1Spot-color line-art self-portrait
A line-drawn, stippled self-portrait stands in for a logo or photo. It's mostly gray ink with one spot of the accent blue in the eyeglasses, so the brand color is introduced through the person.
- 2Sticky identity rail with pinned links
The left identity rail is sticky for the whole scroll. The portrait, name and role stay put while the project ledger moves past, and the social links sit pinned at the rail's bottom edge, so the column works as both header and footer.
- 3Middot-and-rule role line
The role line uses middots and a long em-rule ("Software Artist —— Zürich") in #747474 at 15px: a typeset subtitle with no chips or badges.
- 4Inline logo glyph after a link
An inline brand glyph sits right after an underlined link ("Elastiq" plus a small blue loop mark), so a mention carries its logo at text height without breaking the line.
- 5Story-first project ledger rows
Projects run as a ledger, not a card grid. Each row puts a paragraph of origin story on the left and the project name with a small ↗ at 22px in the right column, and a full-width #cfcfd0 hairline separates the rows.
- 6Floating topic line in the far column
A quiet topic line ("Color · Generative art · Interfaces") floats alone in the far column at body size, doing a tagline's job with no visual weight.
- 7Single serif, single weight hierarchy
One typeface at one weight for the whole page. Hierarchy comes only from size (34 / 22 / 15px) and gray value, and the condensed serif makes the long paragraphs feel narrow and literary.
