The reference for editorial homeware retail: a full-bleed still-life hero on near-white with the whole page set in ff-scala serif, a single coral accent (#FF7D65), and a hand-drawn wordmark logo doing all the personality.

Do / Don't

Reference it for

  • Whole-page serif system in ff-scala (Scala) at small sizes: body 13-15px, product/nav labels 13px, only headings reach 19-30px, so the type feels like a printed catalogue not a website
  • Near-white product staging: #FFFFFF and light-grey (#EEEEEE / #EFEFEF) backgrounds let full-bleed still-life photography carry the hero
  • Single warm accent used sparingly: coral #FF7D65 (rgb 255,125,101) for links, hover states and small fills against an otherwise black/grey/white palette
  • Ink-not-black secondary text: greys #4D4D4D and #949494 for captions and metadata instead of pure black, keeping the page quiet
  • Hand-lettered script wordmark as the only decorative element in an otherwise typographic layout, the logo IS the brand mark
  • Full-bleed image hero with centred serif title + italic subtitle (Nezen / Futons and Bedding by Iwata) and an underlined uppercase micro-CTA (VIEW THE COLLECTION)
  • Wide restrained container maxima (1665px / 1605px) with generous whitespace framing centred content
  • Uppercase, letter-spaced nav labels (0.25px tracking) at 13px: SHOP / JOURNAL / EXHIBITIONS / ABOUT, minimal and evenly weighted

Do not copy

  • The hand-drawn 'nalata nalata' script wordmark, it is a bespoke brand signature
  • The exact coral #FF7D65 as your accent, pick your own single warm hue
  • Real product and still-life photography (the Iwata futon, brand catalogue shots)
  • The specific Japanese maker/brand names (Azmaya, Hender Scheme, Sori Yanagi, etc.)
  • Store-specific copy and details (2 Extra Place address, hours, the Nezen exhibition framing)
  • The Noto Serif JP fallback tied to their Japanese-goods identity
  • The catalogue category taxonomy (Dining, Bed and Bath, Housekeeping) as-is
