Hearth — Membership & Patronage styleguide

Steady support from the people who already love your work.

01 · Color

Warm. Relational. Unhurried.

Patrons aren’t users to convert — they’re people who chose to back the work. Hearth speaks like a friend who runs the studio: honest about money, gracious about leaving, never urgent.

We say

“Your next charge is March 1. $12.00 to keep the studio going.”

We don’t say

“Limited-time exclusive offer! Upgrade NOW before tier closes!”
