2026 Makeover

May 6, 2026

I finally managed to redesign my site! Here’s how I landed on this iteration, after many many versions.

If you’re interested, you can check out the source.

Technology

• Astro as SSG (Static Site Generator)
• CUBE CSS methodology for writing CSS
• Utopia for fluid spacing/typography

Zero JavaScript, no generative AI. This is the way.

Colors

The palette was generated with delphitools.

Typography

The new design comes with two beautiful fonts:

• Headlines: Clash Display
• Body: Work Sans

Inspiration

While looking for fresh ideas for this site, I stumbled upon some nice personal sites that really caught my eye. I highly recommend checking them out.

• Vale.Rocks: Lovely typography, a custom list-style-type, and a beautiful link underline effect
• Andy Bell: The mind behind CUBE CSS. I drew some inspiration from how he structured his site’s HTML
