Formwork

Comparison is shown, never dragged behind a handle. Formwork's background is a persistent GPU render — planks assemble once on load and dust keeps drifting as you scroll, computed rather than looped — and before/after photography sits fully visible side by side, with deliberately no drag-to-reveal slider hiding half the result. One accent colour is reserved for the interactive layer alone, never washed over a whole section, across long-form real-project showcase pages built for a design-build renovation studio.

Overview

Formwork’s design language is stated as five rules, and the theme holds to all of them. Photography carries the page — a section without a real project photo gets cut rather than padded out with a stock icon. Comparison is shown, never dragged: before-and-after photography sits fully visible side by side, because a slider that hides half the evidence behind a handle is less honest than two photos a visitor can actually study — and building that slider was the one interaction pattern this theme refuses on purpose. One accent is reserved strictly for the interactive layer (links, buttons, active states) and never poured over a whole section as a colour wash. The background is one continuous GPU-rendered scene rather than a hero video that stops: planks assemble once on load, and dust keeps drifting for as long as a visitor scrolls, genuinely rendered rather than looped. Hairlines divide sections; shadows are reserved for things that actually lift off the page, like a card on hover or a sticky header, never used as decoration.

AETHERIA

The background is the product. A real WebGL2 particle field runs behind the whole site, five simulations deep, with its live state reported in the rail rather than claimed in the copy. It's a genuine WebGL2 transform-feedback particle integration with a ping-ponged trail buffer, sharing one engine across five simulations on a classic no-build-step PHP theme with zero third-party JavaScript. Case studies, capabilities, recognition, and testimonials run as real post types, backed by a working AJAX inquiry endpoint that actually stores and notifies — built for creative and design agencies.

Concours

A real glossy WebGL2 automotive-paint shader with studio-strip-light streak reflections for a background, not a stock gradient — plus a real AACA-structured 100-point judging calculator, a real numbers-matching explainer, and a real restoration timeline estimator. The hero visually restores as you scroll: dull primer to mirror-sharp show lacquer.

64

A real hand-written WebGL2 wood-grain shader for a background, not a texture image — plus a real USDA Wood Handbook movement calculator, a real Janka hardness selector, and a genuinely computed bookmatch visualizer. Cathedral-to-quartersawn grain transition tied to the same real wood science the tools compute.
