Undertow

An independent documentary needs a site that feels like the opening minutes of the film — slow, atmospheric and impossible to scroll past.

Typeface

Cormorant Garamond and Inter

Palette

Ink black, salt white and sea glass

Design rationale

Cinematic black, salt-white type and a single sea-glass accent. Cormorant Garamond in italic carries the voice of a storyteller; chapters unfold as full-height spreads with gentle parallax, and the title assembles itself letter by letter out of the blur.
