Studio Thomas. Alarm-orange broadcast panel on raw linen.

Studio Thomas operates as an editorial broadcast system: raw linen canvas, one alarm-bell orange, and overscale geometric type that fills the frame. The site reads less like a product and more like a magazine spread — a hamburger and a wordmark are the only chrome, everything else is hero-block, full-bleed photograph, or oversized typography at weight 300. Color appears in single, committed blocks rather than as scattered accents: a hero panel saturates the screen, a cream footer grounds it, and project showcases are wall-sized photography with white display text floating on top. The signature is restraint meets volume — the palette is three colors, but one of them is loud enough to own every screen it touches.
