Tare Lab · R6 · Editorial voice ← Index

Same fonts. Same green. Different voice.

The fonts and palette aren't the problem — they're already Tare. The fix is the editorial voice the body speaks in: where the eye lands first, what scale signals importance, what gets a footnote vs. a callout, what sits in the margin, what gets stamped. Eight distinct moves below, all in Fraunces/DM Mono/Georgia, all on cream + green + rust, all loading the real Style D mushroom icon. Pick the one whose voice sounds like Tare's.
