Do / Don't
Reference it for
- Pure black + pure white + single grey rgb(201,201,201) for counter / metadata
- Bespoke serif logotype on pure black — Obys-serif morphs in the preloader
- Polarised type scale (10/11/80px) — tiny metadata vs monumental display, no middle
- Single weight (400) discipline
- Percentage-counter preloader — right-edge "30" → "50" → "100"
- Logo morph during preloader — parens-style mark transitions through frames
- clip-path 0.8s easeOutExpo as the workhorse motion (sliding reveals)
- transform 1.6s easeOutExpo — exceptionally slow cinematic
Do not copy
- The Obys bespoke serif font (not licensable)
- The parens-style "Obys" logomark
- The counter morph animation pattern (Obys-signature)
- The Ukrainian-creative-studio editorial register
- The exact polarised type scale (most clients need a body-text middle step)
- The Cyrillic/Latin glyph mixing in case studies
- The single-easing-across-system discipline if the brand needs varied motion feel
Signature moves
percentage-counter preloader with logo morph
a percentage-counter preloader (right-edge 30 to 50 to 100) runs with a parens-style logomark morphing through frames before the content.
polarised type scale on pure black
a polarised type scale (10/11/80px, tiny metadata vs monumental display with no middle) in a single weight (400) sits on pure black with white and one grey (rgb(201,201,201)) for counters/metadata, completely flat (0 radius, 0 shadow).
single-easing cinematic transition system
all motion runs as transitions (0 keyframes) on one easing (easeOutExpo, cubic-bezier(0.16,1,0.3,1)) across a duration palette (clip-path 0.8s, transform 1.6s/1s/0.6s, max-width 0.8s drawer, colour 0.4s ease-out).

Analogue
strongCreative Studio
a "seriously playful" brand-and-motion studio that wears its personality as type, a wonky multi-alternate ANALOGUE wordmark, emoji and icon glyphs set inline in the copy, a candy-pink accent on white, and a GSAP-driven box of tricks (mexican-wave letters, glitches, bounce, float) kept just on the right side of chaos.
