Marylou Faure. White gallery wall for fearless color.

- Light theme

Marylou Faure is a gallery wall, not a website. The interface strips itself to a bare white canvas with hairline borders and near-microscopic UI chrome, so the illustrations — vivid reds, bubblegum pinks, electric blues, acid greens — can detonate against it. Typography is a quiet geometric sans (Helvetica Now) that never competes with the artwork; body text lives at 12-16px in near-black, nav links sit in a thin uppercase row, and the only typographic shout is the project title. The system follows one rule: the UI must be the quietest element on every page, so the art is the only thing with a voice.
