Vercel

What’s notable: Brand-as-typography taken to the limit — Vercel’s identity is Geist Sans + Geist Mono (their own open-source faces). Pure black/white with rare accent color, generous whitespace, bento-grid feature sections. Mono is treated as a first-class brand element, not just for code blocks. Triangle logo plus geometric-sans wordmark — the typography does the heavy identity lifting.

Why this matters as a reference: the most extreme example of restraint as positioning — almost no color, almost no decoration, the typeface choice and spacing are the design.
