Web design

Imagine a card that isn't just a 2D plane, but a container with actual volume. A card that holds a miniature 3D world inside it. When you rotate this card, you don't just see it skew, you see the elements inside it shift in perspective, revealing their depth. It's like holding a glass box filled with floating objects. The effect is mesmerizing.

My idea for attempting to reproduce it was to make a big stack of <div> containers where the top center of them are all in the exact center of the screen. Then apply: Then if I put the "star" at the end (bottom center) of each <div>, I'll have a random star field where I can later rotate the container around the center of the screen to get the look I was after.

Instead of only working with a handful of colors, you can create a whole palette of swatches at the same time so you can see if they look good together. Precise control of every shades/tints in each swatch rather than being limited by autogenerated colors. See which color pairs contrast as you edit so you can create a palette with built-in WCAG accessibility.

Tyler rejects the homogenisation of web design and decided to swerve Perfectly Imperfect into a lane of its own, inspired by the early internet aesthetics of "solid but saturated colours, lack of texture, MS Paint-style airbrushing, and a singular broadcast-style aesthetic", Brent David Freaney tells us. Brent's studio Special Offer collaborated with Tyler to bring the best parts of early internet's visuality, whilst still creating something that belongs in 2025.
