Logo and graphic elements

Bright orange emerges as the dominant accent color, reminiscent of its era. It is complemented by a teal color. The desaturated green helps evoke an analog look.

The combination of nostalgia with a modern touch is balanced by the primary bright white background and the contrast of pure black text.

Website Design

The colorful user interface has funky shapes, such as the buttons, inspired by The Jetsons, a children’s TV show from 1960s.
