The signature

Hierarchy is made with light, not colour: three near-blacks one step apart (page, inset work surface, raised control) separated by 8% white hairlines, and four tiers of cool grey text. The type is small and set at an in-between medium weight (510), so even dense lists look calm. The only saturated colour is a small status mark.
