Stratus

A weather app that reads like a field instrument

Overview

Weather stripped of the usual glassy clichés — a cold fog palette, mono labels, a 24-hour temperature curve, and instrument-grade dials you can trust at a glance.

Every weather app looks the same: a gradient sky, floating glass panels, rows of tiny icons. Stratus goes the other way — designed like meteorological field equipment, where the data itself is the aesthetic.

Design direction

The decisions that give Stratus its own personality — and keep it from looking like anything else on this page.

  1. 1

    A Swiss-instrument visual language: cold fog canvas, ink typography, one signal-orange accent.

  2. 2

    A 24-hour temperature curve instead of icon rows — the shape of the day at a glance.

  3. 3

    Wind, pressure, and humidity as instrument dials with real units.

  4. 4

    Mono station labels and coordinates, like equipment that means business.
