For a product that keeps its accent for what is live.
The fifteenth Quaeris Design release, and the first one that is free. A product-analytics site carrying features, plans with a billing switch, three case studies and a searchable journal with authors and categories — twenty-three routes, with the whole demo live and open to inspection.
Every figure came from astro-design-ether.pages.dev. Open it and check.
Free, under the same licence: one published website. The studio licence covers client work.
A visual direction for software that would rather sound like an editor than a growth team. Paper and deep green, a grotesque headline with one phrase set in serif italic, mono chapter markers and a single mint accent kept for whatever is live or active. The hero is a WebGL glow written without a library, and it gives way to a CSS one on a phone, on modest hardware and on a software renderer.
Every route below is generated at build and served as a static file.
Paper for surfaces, ink for type and one saturated green, spent only on live state, the active link, numerals and the primary action. Spreading it any further is what makes a SaaS site look like every other one, so the theme’s own documentation tells you not to.
The hero glow is a WebGL fragment shader on a single triangle, with no library behind it. Under reduced motion no context is created at all; on a narrow screen or modest hardware it is never started; and where the browser reports a software renderer it gives way to a CSS glow rather than drawing every pixel on the processor.
The case studies, their companies, quotes and figures are sample content, and the page says so in its masthead. Shipping invented customer proof as if it were real is a trust problem and a legal one, so the theme makes it impossible to forget rather than easy to miss.
Four faces, each with one job: a variable grotesque for headings and figures, a serif italic for a single phrase per headline, a sans for running text and a mono for markers and labels. That one editorial note against a technical grotesque is what keeps the site from reading as another clean template.
A good-looking screenshot is the beginning. The details help you choose.
Every release lists its page set, from the homepage to the article, author and category templates your project actually needs.
Page list with each releaseDesktop and mobile layouts, navigation, focus states and interactions, checked at the widths people actually use rather than the one the screenshot was taken at.
