MUUDS

Curated catalog of analyzed web design.

tenyears-source-paris

A rigorous, pitch-black agency retrospective that reads like an intellectual design monograph. Austere Swiss typography and stark negative space are punctuated at regular intervals by vibrant, saturated chapter-divider banners and minimalist hand-drawn annotations.

Type rules

  • display headlines use sentence-case TWK Everett with tight leading
  • body text stays constrained to a 40-character column measure for editorial readability
  • timeline brackets and structural labels appear in spaced uppercase

Colour rules

  • deep black serves as the primary canvas for over 90 percent of the experience
  • solid saturated color-blocked cards mark chapter beginnings and never overlap

Voice rules

  • treat copy as a serialized agency manifesto rather than marketing bullet points
  • structure narrative into clear chronological and thematic chapters

Holds it together

  • each chapter opens with a vibrant saturated banner paired with stark vector illustration
  • body narrative flows in two-column text blocks aligned on a modular editorial grid
  • editorial pull quotes and key phrases use subtle hand-drawn vector highlights
