Gawker, the news and gossip website founded in 2002 by Nick Denton and which shut down in 2016, relaunched with a bold new design in July of 2021. The relaunch failed and was officially shut down in February 2023, but the site is still up (as of September 2023).

The redesign featured Etna X Condensed and Arial for display, and Georgia for text. The logo uses Sharp Grotesk Semibold 25.
