Ideogram — Design System
Ideogram frames image generation as design practice: Exposure serif at 74px/400 on peach #FFF9F4 ('Open image model at the forefront of design.'), Geist on ink full-pill buttons, 16px working text. Typographic sample grids — the model's specialty — double as the page's art direction; a rare AI-image brand that leads with lettering instead of faces.
This is a static, crawlable rendering for search & AI engines. The interactive version — filters, live decode console, copy & export — is at https://mozaika.design/ds/ideogram.
