Page cadence

Structured like the new mockups.

Cleaner, larger, more editorial. The landing page borrows the same monochrome newspaper discipline, blue accent moments, hard rules, and generous breathing room from the page designs.

Distribution

Made for physical pass-along.

The site should feel like the paper: restrained, confident, spacious, and editorial, not like a generic SaaS landing page.

Why the redesign works

It uses the mockup language instead of fighting it: large black type, off-white paper, light gray panels, blue as a sharp accent, and longer gaps between sections.

  • Fewer colors, stronger hierarchy.
  • More whitespace between sections.
  • Hard editorial rules instead of soft cards everywhere.
  • Logo stays as the current eagle/wordmark.
Advertising

Simple launch pricing, QR attribution, advertiser-supplied creative by default, and optional concierge support for spec concepts.
