Light Leak Wash
An analogue-film light leak hugging one corner, warm colour streaks drifting slowly like mis-loaded stock. Adds instant warmth and texture to photography, film, and brand-story sections without a stock-photo overlay.

Calm, full-bleed aurora wash of drifting colour fields for hero and section backdrops. Pure CSS, no canvas or JS, fixed low opacity so body text keeps AA contrast on top.
astroA static technical drafting-table grid with fine minor rules, bolder major rules every few cells, and a faint crosshair origin marker — a precise, no-motion backdrop for engineering, CAD and dev-tool pages.
astroSoft, out-of-focus circles in varied sizes and blur drifting gently behind your content, like camera bokeh behind a subject. Warm and photographic rather than geometric — a gentle backdrop for testimonials, pricing, and about pages.
astroA slow, restrained drift of diagonal bands behind a section — reads as quiet motion rather than decoration, so body copy, forms and pricing tables stay fully legible on top.
