Zero Gradient marketing pages
4 sites in our growing collection share the zero gradient signal — Plasticity, Notion, Spline, and 1 more. Each catalogued page carries a paste-ready 24-field design brief — palette, typography, spacing, motion — that an AI agent can drop into Claude, Cursor, or v0.

Plasticity
Light-first 3D modelling tool landing that refuses the render-reel-above-fold cliché. Triple-font system — Matter + auxMono + fkGrotesk — assigns each family one register. Four-stop rainbow accent (lime, cyan, magenta, amber) appears only as solid emphasis, never as fill. Narrow 896px canvas, zero gradients, subtle motion — the page is the pause before opening the tool.

Notion
The productivity-tool landing that treats the interface itself as the product — every surface feels like a well-crafted page in a well-crafted notebook. Notion carries paper-feel warmth on a warm off-white canvas, pairs a commissioned optical sans (NotionInter) with a serif (Lyon Text), a monospace (iA Writer Mono), and a sticker font (Permanent Marker), then cascades 4-5 soft shadow layers at sub-5% opacity to simulate ink on real paper. Rainbow accents are semantic vocabulary — link blue, editorial orange, citation brown — each tied to a specific content role.

Spline
The 3D-tool landing that refuses to flatten itself into a screenshot — pure #000 canvas, a three-family Spline Sans / Brockmann / Spline Sans Mono trinity, and a semantic rainbow of accent CSS variables used one tone at a time. Spline demonstrates a rare creative-tool discipline: zero shadow, zero gradient, a single 1px hairline carrying every layer distinction, all motion compressed into a 0.2s CSS transition with no library overhead. The spacing scale starts at 2px so embedded canvases and video loops can breathe without feeling airy.

GitBook
The docs-platform landing that reads like a published field manual — warm stone palette, pure black ink, zero gradients, and a single sharp orange accent used like a highlighter margin note. GitBook demonstrates a rare 2026 discipline: three typographic voices from three different foundries (General Sans Variable for display, Inter for body, Geist Mono for code), each holding a strict register, paired with a radically minimal elevation grammar — only three drop shadows, all soft. Preserved native #0000ee hyperlink blue signals editorial credibility from the OSS docs-tooling cohort.
