MotherDuck
A playful, developer-warm marketing surface built on a cream canvas (#f4efea) and an entirely monospace type system (Aeonik Mono display + Aeonik Fono body). The system reads like a friendly terminal — uppercase mono headlines, sky-blue CTA buttons with sharp 0–2px corners, a bright yellow announcement bar and marquee bands, hard offset "sticker" shadows, and hand-drawn duck/cloud illustrations. Brand voltage comes from the mono typography, the cream-and-blue palette, and the cheerful illustration layer rather than from heavy depth or accent saturation.
