This is an experimental graphic design portfolio characterized by a stark, high-contrast monochrome base and massive, expressive typography. The design uses a black background (#000000) and white text (#FFFFFF) to create a bold visual impact. The primary font categories are geometric-sans for display elements and grotesque-sans for body text. Key interactive elements are pill-shaped buttons with white borders. The layout is sparse and vertically centered, focusing attention on large, custom-designed typographic logos. Critical donts: avoid using subtle or muted colors, avoid standard or generic typography, avoid sharp corners on buttons, avoid cluttered or complex layouts, avoid traditional grid structures, and avoid small, safe font sizes.
