Materials
Every page is a static document written by hand. One stylesheet keeps the design coherent. Every link is a real URL, and the structure is visible in the markup. No framework, no dependencies, no build step beyond a file copy — less to break, easier to audit.
Type
Three families, all self-hosted as woff2 so no request ever leaves for a font network. Instrument Serif carries the display voice. Schibsted Grotesk handles body copy. Fragment Mono is reserved for labels, dates, and the runhead.
Motion
Three kinds, each made differently. The Garden product film is rendered with Remotion. The small sprout microstate is a hand-authored Lottie animation. The field behind the homepage hero is a generative canvas, drawn live in the browser on each visit.
The wire
The homepage carries a live network ledger: a table of every request the page has made, read straight from the browser’s Resource Timing API. Most sites ask you to believe a privacy policy. This one shows you its traffic.
Hosting and offline
Static files served from Cloudflare Pages. A service worker caches the site on first visit, so it stays readable without a connection afterward. That is not a flourish — it is a requirement of the trust claim the studio makes about Garden.
Privacy
No analytics. No cookies. No trackers. No consent banner, because there is nothing to consent to. Cloudflare may log request metadata, but that is infrastructure, not surveillance.
