About this design

The headline is set in Playfair Display, the supporting text in Lora. The background is a two-color gradient. The photo bleeds in from the right edge, with no frame around it.

It exports at 1200x630, the size link previews use on X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Slack and Discord, and the same design restacks for the other five sizes: 1280x720, 1080x1080, 1080x1350, 1080x1920, 1000x1500.
