A personal website built in Next.js that tries to be something other than a template. The landing page is a black box floating on an animated zen garden canvas — my name in a 3x3 grid where each letter reveals a different color and link on hover.
The blog is designed as an editorial hub rather than a vertical feed. Posts are organized into sections: writing, AI commentary, good reads, philosophy. The whole thing is built on restraint — Boska serif for reading, Excon for structural marks, generous whitespace, earth tones.
No CMS, no database (yet). Just TypeScript data files and static generation. Sometimes the boring scalable thing is also the simplest thing.
