COLOPHON
Colophon
A documentation practice should be able to document itself. This page records how densitywave.xyz is built and kept.
Construction
The site is designed and published in Framer and served from its hosting. No cookies are set by the practice and no analytics run; nothing about a visit is collected. Every page is built from one design system — color tokens, text styles, and a small set of shared components — and the atmosphere is drawn live in code: one slowly breathing wave field, one quiet field of light per composition, no photography anywhere.
Design
One register: house black. The visual system radiates from the practice’s mark — light opening through a frame — translated into the site’s materials: near-black grounds around #101013, one quiet field of light per composition, warm off-white text near #F3F0E8, pewter and silver details in the #4A4A4C–#C9C9CC range, and no saturated color anywhere. Motion is slow and damped — fades and gently radiating feedback — and stands down when a visitor asks for reduced motion.
Typography
Display lines and aphorisms are set in Marcellus, inscriptional Roman letterforms in direct dialogue with the brand’s Cinzel capitals — and, through their flared terminals, with the wordmark’s Optima. Long-form text is set in Sentient, a flared serif of the same sensibility. The brand name is set in Bellefair, a light serif of classical proportions. Labels, standards, metadata, and the record below are set in Fragment Mono. The family was settled on 24 August 2026; this page records any future change.
The mark
The favicon and the wave in the footer are the practice’s symbol — a radiant opening in a window frame — mastered separately as vector artwork and used here from its canonical renders.
Provenance
All copy derives from the practice’s internal Studio Bible (v2.1) and Website Map (v1.3), both dated 18 July 2026. Learning entries carry their own visible revision notes; this page carries the site’s.
