Primitive Template
Marginalia — Personal Blog
Blog & Magazine one-pager in 3 editable sections — a photo-led layout and a call-to-action band, built around “New essays every other Sunday”.
About this template
Marginalia — Personal Blog is a single-page blog & magazine template assembled entirely from the builder's primitive blocks. Its 3 sections run from marginalia through to new essays every other sunday, taking in “Marginalia” and “Notes on design, craft and the slow web” along the way.
The palette pairs near-black (#111111) with a soft blue accent (#DAE2F8), typeset in Poppins. 3 headings, 26 images and 2 buttons are all wired to the standard Inspectors, so text, colour, spacing and imagery can be changed on the canvas without touching code.
