Antumbra · Visual design · 2026

Antumbra reads a relationship and gives you one straight answer. The interface is built the same way: black, white, nothing in between. Engraved plates, a CRT the whole product sits inside, a map where positions are computed rather than dragged, and an archive of floppy disks — one per person.

15 platesscroll ↓
01The cover. One claim, one engraved eclipse, two buttons.
02The same screen in dark. One bit means it inverts cleanly — no second palette.
03Six things the system does, set as a reference page rather than a feature grid.
04Nine engraved plates carry the whole home page. No stock photography, no gradients.
05Your map. Everyone you've saved in one frame — positions computed, not draggable.
06The archive: one floppy disk per person, filed by how you know them.
07Your own page, dark. The disk is the record; the reading is beside it.
08A structural reading. Monospace for what the code computed, serif for what it means.
09Same input, same answer. The promises are typeset as plainly as they're kept.
10How it works, written as a document with a contents rail.
11The close. One line. Then it's your move.
12Twelve marks on paper, before the eclipse won.
13Wordmark trials, condensed to the letter A.
14Penny — the operator who reads the chart for you. Idle, blink, think, read, oops.
15Type sheet. Monospace for the machine, serif for the sentence.
That's the *bit*.
