31 Best Sanity Website Examples
Sanity
sites are built by developers from scratch, so nothing about the design is a default. That makes the best Sanity
websites a good place to study real choices. Dark and colored backgrounds dominate here, with plain white far less common than I found after running every site through Claude. The difference shows in the details. Pay attention to how each site pairs its background color with button contrast and text weight as you look through the set.

Best Sanity
website examples favor illustration and restraint over photography
Photo heroes cover only 40% of this page, well under the 64.1% rate across the wider gallery. Sanity
sites treat the hero less as a billboard and more as a system demonstration: illustration takes 20%, and product mockups, 3D artwork, and video split the remainder. Stytch
, Copa Resources
, and ahm
all lean on illustrated heroes rather than photography, and Normcore
goes further with a 3D hero artwork. For a builder, the takeaway is that a content-management-driven site doesn’t need a lifestyle photograph up top to feel credible. A drawn or rendered scene reads as more deliberate, and it sidesteps the awkwardness of stock photography when the underlying product is abstract, like an API or a studio’s process.
Blue accents punch above their weight
Blue shows up as the accent hue on 18.5% of measured sites here, nearly double the 9.8% rate seen across the full gallery, putting it in a tie with neutral and just behind amber’s 25.9%. Tattoo Studios
uses blue buttons against a black-and-white palette, showing how a single blue accent can carry the interactive layer of an otherwise monochrome design. This matters for anyone designing in the Sanity
ecosystem: the base palette is overwhelmingly restrained, so the accent color becomes the primary signal of brand personality, and blue reads as trustworthy and technical in a way that fits developer-facing tools.
White and near-black split the field, leaving the middle empty
Near-white backgrounds appear on 43.3% of sites, actually below the gallery-wide 56% rate, while near-black backgrounds take 16.7%, more than the light, dark, and mid-tone buckets combined at 13.3% each. Roboto Studio
and Sanity
itself both commit to near-black, while Stytch
and ahm
sit at the white end. The lesson: Sanity
website design rewards picking a pole. A muted middle ground barely registers, so designers choose stark light or stark dark and let the black-and-white palette, which covers 36.7% of sites as pure monochrome, do the structural work.
Sans-serif type is nearly universal
Body copy is set in a sans-serif family on 92.9% of sites, with mono and serif each claiming a single outlier. Roboto Studio
sets its body in Geist, and Copa Resources
uses GeistSans, both reinforcing the same clean, technical register. Serif appears only where a brand wants warmth against the grain, as with Ingeno
and PDF.co
. Anyone building a Sanity
website should default to sans and reserve serif for a deliberate departure.
