About Moebius (Jean Giraud)
Moebius — the pen name of Jean Giraud (1938–2012) — built a visual language of warm pastel skies, clean fine-line drawing, and saturated sci-fi-fantasy that reshaped European comics and global sci-fi imagination. His Arzach, Le Garage Hermétique, and L'Incal pages float between Western horizon and dream-machine, inked with a single confident contour.
This system bottles that aesthetic into UI tokens: a cream paper page, pastel-sky panels, saturated orange / pink / mint / purple accents, and serif typography. Surfaces read like a Moebius comics-panel — warm, fine-lined, quietly fantastical, and never corporate-cool.
