Pauline

The desktop homepage features a clean, minimalist layout with a white background and black serif typography. A large hero image shows a baker's hands working with dough on a floured surface, followed by a bright yellow section with the headline 'Pauline? Quoi?' and a call to action to discover their story. Navigation links for 'Ons Verhaal', 'Assortiment', 'Stories', and 'Verkooppunten' are centered at the top.

The mobile version maintains the same aesthetic but uses a condensed layout. The top navigation is replaced by a hamburger menu icon, and the hero image of dough preparation spans the full width of the screen. The yellow call-to-action section follows, featuring large, centered text and a simplified view of the content.
