Three finalists.
One winner ships.
Narrowed from five down to three finalists after the first review. The OG cyberpunk vibe (currently live), Glass (Phantom-style futurist), and Tape (brutalist mono cult). Same product, same live data, three entirely different brand voices. Click in, switch between them with the pill in the bottom-right of any page. Pick the one that carries the brand.
$EDGE /OG
The starting point. Lime acid green + hot magenta + ink black + brutalist Anton display. High-energy cyberpunk terminal feel. This is what's deployed at www.thepolyedge.com today — the baseline the two finalists are competing against.
Glass.
Dimensional, prismatic, modern. Frosted glass panels float over violet + cyan aurora. Iridescent gradient borders, soft depth, variable-weight sans. The aesthetic of where crypto goes next.
TAPE.
Stark, brutalist, cult. Pure black + pure white + one cyan signal. 100% monospace. Hard grid. ASCII rules. The aesthetic of the underground tech zine that institutional traders read in private.
