The page as an edited film. Full-screen frames that cut on scroll, the wordmark fitted to the exact viewport width, their names at 216px arriving from opposite edges, and a marquee that reverses direction with your scroll. All thirteen photographs, none small.
Weak spots: nine dead links, a lull in the mark section, Chromium only.
A real shader layer, written from scratch with no library: a fluid velocity field the cursor drags the photography through, GPU dissolves between frames, and a procedural sienna flood. Measured 120fps on a real GPU and 104fps average with no GPU at all.
Weak spots: 2.08 MB, over budget, all of it photography. Needs a test on the actual demo laptop.
Ten full-bleed fields that hard-cut with no transition, photograph to sienna to black to paper. Their eight collaborations fill an entire sienna viewport at 98px. Playfair at 150px, difference-blended over the photography.
Weak spots: sienna carries three whole fields, no mobile nav, one field does nothing maximalist.
The quiet version, kept for contrast. Correct on craft and content but too thin: it is the one that read as an outline rather than a website, and it is why the three above exist.
