Modern web development has evolved into an overwhelming chain of interconnected services, frameworks, and configurations. While this sophistication enables powerful applications with fast iteration and rich UX, the reality is that even simple projects now require orchestrating numerous components each with its own learning curve or documentation set to read and manage.

Yet there's an elegant simplicity in static websites that continues to captivate. This site draws inspiration from the meticulous symmetry and secondary colors of Wes Anderson's "The Grand Budapest Hotel," the layouts of Jen Simmons, and the designs and teachings of Ludwig Schubert. It also respects the motherfuckingwebsite.com, which calls out web bloat and over-design.

In embracing a static approach, we return to the web's fundamental purpose: sharing content and ideas through accessible design. While modern web applications serve their purpose, there's something beautiful about a website that loads instantly, works everywhere, and focuses purely on its message.
