A big, modern, blocky affair with a mobile-style menu, fully responsive styling,
and an assortment of pre-styled elements. So, pretty much what you were expecting
-- except, of course, for how it's put together, specifically:
- It's built on Skel 3*, a leaner, more modular rewrite of my responsive framework.
(* = still in development as of this writing)
- It uses flexbox*, which eliminates all kinds of terrible hacks and clunky layout
stopgaps (like CSS grid systems).
(* = not supported on IE8/9, but non-flexbox fallbacks are included)
- It uses Sass* a lot more intelligently, thanks in part to several new mixins
and functions I've been working on (as well as a few by @HugoGiraudel ).

(* = still entirely optional if you prefer vanilla CSS :)

- A ton of other stuff.
In short, Spectral's the culmination of several new things I'm working on/trying out,
so please, let me know what you think :)
