Exo Ape

Reference it for

• Colossal display type as the whole layout: one word ('Digital') set 144 to 250px in a neo-grotesque (Lausanne, or any tight grotesque like Neue Haas / GT America), tracking pulled negative so letterforms nearly collide
• Full-bleed edge-to-edge photography as the hero background with white text laid directly over it, no scrim card, no gradient overlay panel
• Cinematic colour grade: shoot or grade toward blue-hour dusk tones so the photo carries all the atmosphere and the UI stays neutral
• Whisper-quiet nav: thin 14 to 16px links (Work, Studio, News, Contact) top-right in the same grotesque, no pills, no CTA button
• Small intro paragraph (14 to 16px, generous 1.8+ line-height) sitting low-left as a caption to the giant headline, prestige through restraint
• Zero-elevation system: no box-shadow anywhere, depth read from surface colour temperature (white cards on #e4e0db canvas beige, #070707 footer ink)
• Warm-neutral interior palette off the cinematic hero: ink #0d0e13, canvas beige #e4e0db, sand border #e0ccbb, warm linen #e6d7ca, steel #6e6e71
• Square everything: 0px radius on tags, cards, images and buttons, an editorial print discipline

Do not copy

• The 'exo ape' wordmark itself (roman 'exo' + italic 'ape' lockup)
• The specific Venice / Santa Maria della Salute basilica photograph
• The literal word 'Digital' as the hero headline
• The 'Global digital design studio partnering with brands...' agency positioning line verbatim
• The exact Lausanne typeface if licence is a concern (substitute a grotesque, keep the negative tracking)
• The Work / Studio / News / Contact nav taxonomy copied wholesale
