Type cabinet
02 — Display · Uppercase as mineral
Devil hides here. A semi-modular display cut from succulent flesh, Art Nouveau bones, and Matisse paper. Never a paragraph. Always an object.
03 — Variable · Hyphae as axis
HUMUS
Contamination changes world-making projects. Soil writes in threads. Knowledge is a network, not a monument.
Five pigments. One core sample. Read them as geology, not branding.
#f2e8cf
Limestone dust. Dry parchment. The paper of the cabinet. Default ground for Lithops — stone needs air around it.
#a7c957
Chlorophyll flash. Spore dust. The only loud color. Use as signal, never as field. It is a fruiting body, not a wall.
#6a994e
Living tissue. Moss on the north face. The middle voice — quieter than hunter, warmer than chlorophyll.
#386641
Canopy night. Wet soil. The world of Fungal. Body text reverses here. Depth, not decoration.
#bc4749
Iron oxide. Split stone. A wound in the green. Emphasis, fruiting, the letter that should not be ignored.
Lithops — Anne-Dauphine Borione, Velvetyne, 2022. Uppercase as camouflage.

Fungal — Raphaël Bastide & Jérémy Landes, Velvetyne, 2022. A variable homage to contamination.
Drag the axes. This is the interaction the landing page will inherit — type that grows instead of type that slides.

Humus is not dirt. It is a slow intelligence: leaf, bone, thread, rain. We index what the forest floor already knows — that a network outlives a monument, and that the most honest letterforms are the ones that refuse to stay still.
They do not harmonise. They argue. That argument is the identity.

Lithops occupies the skyline. Fungal occupies the weather. Karrik occupies the label. Never let two display sizes compete in one viewport.
Lithops is a proper noun — a species, a place, a warning. Fungal is a verb. Karrik is the field note written after the find.
Stone sits on mist or hunter. Soil sits on hunter. Brick is a single letter, a single rule, a single wound. Chlorophyll marks a live axis.
Do not ease Lithops. It is already a cut-out. Animate Fungal through font-variation-settings only — grow, not position.
Material references. These are not decorations — they are the world the type has to survive in.
A short constitution before the landing page is grown.
DEVIL
hides here — and the soil keeps the minutes.
