Design Philosophy
This site embodies Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian simplicity. I like tou use clean lines, purposeful whitespace, and content that breathes. Every element serves a function; nothing is decoration for decoration's sake.
The color palette draws from natural materials: paper whites, charcoal grays, and subtle accent tones. Typography is readable and unobtrusive, allowing the content to speak for itself.
