What's notable: Söhne (Klim Type Foundry, neo-grotesque sans) across all surfaces — same family Stripe uses, signaling a similar "expensive restraint." Black-and-white-leaning palette with very restrained accent use. Layouts heavy on typography and whitespace, light on illustration; product / research / company nav structure that prioritizes the work over marketing.
Why this matters as a reference: the textbook example of restraint scaling — a $100B+ company whose website looks closer to a research org than a consumer product, by choice.
