PANEL 01 / LOGOTYPE
lupin.day
Botanical telemetry for a meadow that won’t stop blooming.
PANEL 02 / FIELD NOTES
A bold spire, an obstinate optimism.
The lupine arrives ahead of its pollinators, plants its flag of pink and burgundy, and dares the meadow to keep up. Each spire is a stack of tiny silver-backed banners — pea-family flowers reading like punch-cards in a Victorian computing room. lupin.day is the heads-up display we built for them.
Below, eleven instruments report what the field is doing right now. Above, three illustrated specimens stand quietly in the background — gridded, observed, and entirely uninterested in being measured.

Set in Playfair Display · Nunito · Share Tech Mono. Hand-drawn lupines in inline SVG. No photographs — the spectrograph won’t cooperate. The HUD occasionally hiccups; this is on purpose.
