Morning Light · Home page explorations

Five homes,
one new day.

Five distinct home pages built on the 06-morning-light token system, ramping from mild (the skin as-shipped, grown to a full page) to spicy (the warm daylight pushed to a poster, then held back for dawn). Each page imports the same tokens.css and shared components, then layers its own extensions — and every one keeps the same thread: a new day to begin.

The thread

Morning Light is the sunniest, friendliest skin in the set — warm cream with a hot-clay sun over pine. Its whole idea is a fresh start: Sunday as a new day. Every home returns to that first hour of light.

The voice

One grotesk family — Hanken Grotesk with a Space Mono utility line — carries four of the five. Only Horizon adds a single italic Fraunces counter-voice, right where the brand softens boldness with flowing type: in the dark, before the dawn.

The ramp

Mild keeps the friendly daylight calm. Medium steps into warm cinema and a real Sunday timetable. Spicy splits two ways — Sunburst turns up the graphic heat; Horizon turns the lights down and waits for morning.
