Drive Capital. Retro road-trip poster on warm paper.

Drive Capital's Summer Drive is an editorial event-poster system built on a warm cream canvas and a single electric blue accent. The type pairing is the soul: a hairline didone serif (Editorial New at weight 100) delivers monumental headlines at 77–120px, while a low-weight grotesk (Founders Grotesk 300/400) handles everything else with quiet confidence. Tracking is uniformly tight at -0.02em, giving even body text a compressed, magazine-grade feel. Surfaces are flat — no shadows, no gradients — with hairline gray (#e2e8f0) dividers doing the structural work. Buttons are 60px-radius pills, always outlined in blue, never filled. The overall rhythm is generous: 144px page margins, 150px section padding, with body copy in a narrow column. The result reads like a printed invite dropped into a browser — warm, confident, and deliberately minimal.
