Marga Navarro
www.itsmarga.meThe reference for a one-screen craft-software-design portfolio — a hand-drawn corgi-and-butterfly sketch as the entire hero canvas, with a tiny rounded mono-typeface "shortcut card" floating top-left as the only chrome.

Do / Don't
Reference it for
- One-screen-portfolio composition — entire landing page fits in a 1440x900 viewport with massive negative space
- Warm-grey rgb(209, 211, 214) page (not pure white, not pure grey) — softer than the typical white portfolio
- Single chromatic accent (#fe3300 neon orange) used only on a 24x24 logomark square — the orange never appears on text or large surfaces
- DM Mono as the system font for nav, labels, links, body at 12px — mono signals "designer-engineer who values precision"
- PP Neue Montreal as the single paragraph face at 14px — used once, for the one human sentence
- 400-only weight discipline — no bold, no light, only regular across both faces
- Letter-spacing -0.2px on all mono — tightens the DM Mono geometric defaults
- Floating top-left "shortcut card" as the about/intro composition — rounded 4-6px container with logo + tagline + filter chips + paragraph
Do not copy
- The corgi-and-butterfly illustration (commissioned / personal)
- The "MARGA NAVARRO" name or "great software design(!)" tagline
- The neon #fe3300 brand orange (too specific to her mark)
- The "CRAFT-WHIMS" nav label (deeply personal coinage)
- The filter chips' specific role labels ("ENGINEERS / FOUNDERS / DESIGNERS") unless the brand genuinely targets those audiences
- The empty-viewport hero unless the brand has the same confidence and is selling craft (not features or services with concrete deliverables)
- The Webflow stack itself — if rebuilding for Jiffi, use Astro (see astro-rebuild.md)
Signature moves
one-screen portfolio with floating shortcut card
the entire landing fits a 1440x900 viewport with massive negative space, a floating top-left rounded 4-6px "shortcut card" (logo + tagline + filter chips + paragraph) as the only chrome on a warm-grey rgb(209,211,214) ground
mono-system type with filter-chip audience selector
DM Mono is the system font for nav, labels, links and body at 12px with letter-spacing -0.2px, PP Neue Montreal handles the single human paragraph at 14px, all at 400 weight only, with filter chips ("ANYONE / ENGINEERS / FOUNDERS / DESIGNERS") as a first-person audience selector and the active one underlined inline
