let's try building a landing page using only single weight fonts and extreme scale. the goal is to rely on massive hierarchy instead of color or borders to create depth. no sans-serif allowed ⚡

try using a high-contrast serif w/ an extremely tight letter-spacing to prevent the massive scale from looking like a mistake. when you strip away borders, tracking becomes your only way to define word boundaries. if you push the kerning too wide on huge headers, the layout will just feel broken rather than intentional.

letter-spacing: -0.05em;

>it's all about the negative space between characters

the biggest risk is that the lack of sans-serifs makes everything feel too dense or "heavy" when you scale up. use super wide margins to compensate for the visual weight. do you have a specific typeface in mind for the body copy?

the lack of sans-serif makes it way harder to manage line height when u're scaling up. try using a high-contrast serif like Bodoni to rly push that scale difference.
