What it does

Recording-only reference. A large expressive Charlie wordmark sits above a vivid red Demo panel on black. Compact pill-like navigation remains at the top. Scrolling exposes a dense grid of blue, red, black and patterned animation tiles, continuing the strongly typographic opening into a varied work presentation.

Section roster

1. Expressive Charlie wordmark. 2. Large red Demo panel. 3. Compact portfolio navigation. 4. Dense colored and patterned work-tile grid.

Why it works

The red panel establishes a forceful opening before the varied work grid. Repeating the typographic emphasis across the wordmark, demo and tiles creates coherence despite the changing colors and patterns.

Source and capture notes

Refero [style page](https://styles.refero.design/style/34aa811f-6084-484c-b4c0-f587b514e970) and [recorded video](https://images.refero.design/styles/refero.design/video/ef5d598f-fac1-423e-9b10-51261d3c6318.mp4); [live site](https://charlielemaignan.com) checked on 2026-10-06. The recording is a point-in-time reference; current site content may differ. Descriptions distinguish the recording from the current page where they differ. Layout and motion notes come from sampled recording frames; no live capture or measured responsive layout is attached; interactive controls were not comprehensively tested. The live page rendered its wordmark but the project area remained on a loading indicator; that incomplete screenshot was excluded. The recording covers the opening and early work grid rather than a complete project archive or footer.
