Alejandro Mejias. Acid-lit brutalist atelier, acid yellow against obsidian and bone white.

  • Studio
  • Mixed theme
  • 6 colors
  • 5 typefaces

Alejandro Mejias operates as a brutalist editorial portfolio: near-total monochrome canvases (white and deep black sections alternate) are interrupted by a single electric lime accent (#ebff00) that only appears on contact actions, time stamps, and avatar CTAs. Typography is the identity — a custom wide-compact grotesque (FK Raster Grotesk) at 32–48px carries every section heading, while IBM Plex Mono at 10–18px with aggressive positive tracking handles every label, tag, and metadata string. The signature element is a glossy 3D-rendered abstract 'A' sculpture that anchors major sections like a sculptural logo-mascot. Layout is edge-to-edge with very tight gutters, a fixed three-zone top bar (left brand, center nav, right status pill), and floating corner CTAs. Components feel architectural: sharp 4px button corners, soft 24px image corners, and occasional oversized pill radii up to 84px create deliberate contrast. The overall atmosphere is a high-design atelier's workshop log — restrained, opinionated, and unapologetically loud where it matters.
