Notion
What’s notable: A workhorse-plus-display split — Inter (humanist sans) for product UI and most of the marketing chrome, with a custom display serif for headlines on the marketing pages adding personality and warmth. Slightly off-white warm-neutral backgrounds, friendly hand-drawn-style illustrations, restrained but distinctive use of red as accent. Reads as “approachable knowledge platform” — softer than Stripe, more substantial than Slack.
Why this matters as a reference: the contemporary template for “knowledge platform” positioning — sans for utility, serif for warmth, illustration for personality.
