Illustrative web design
5 curated illustrative sites, shown as our own renders. Click any one to decode it — pull the palette, measure the spacing, or install its shadcn theme.
What to look for. Illustration sets the palette here, and the UI tokens follow it. A good case study in deriving a system from artwork rather than the reverse.
Pranksy pranksy.io Decode Pale sage and brick red, with the display face outlined rather than filled, so the biggest thing on the page is a drawing of type instead of a slab of colour. Three faces do the whole job: a heavy condensed wordmark, a hand-drawn marker at marquee scale that never stops moving, and a small letterspaced sans for the labels. The homepage is three moves and a footer, which takes more confidence than another section would. 
CatNames.com catnames.com Decode Coral on white, a rounded display face, and cut-out cats that break their own frames. Every block is a card, the hero cat gets a speech bubble, and the primary action is a swipe rather than a search, which states the whole product in one button. 
Don't Look Up www.dontlookup.app Decode Pencil-line figures at ant scale under two enormous shoes, the whole thing black on bone white with one red line marking what the crowd will carry. A fat comic display face shouts the title while the crowd mutters in speech bubbles, and the only other colour that ever arrives is the yellow of someone who has just noticed your fee. 
Mr.Day mrday.it Decode Marquee strips of heavy display type alternate with cut-out product shots, so the page scrolls like a moving poster — orange and cyan carry the brand while a “level up” gaming motif runs through the copy. 
Pranksters.com pranksters.com Decode A near-black stage lit by a single red: highlight blocks set behind the headline, one red primary button, and character art holding the entire right half of the fold. Also in these collections
