The same design tokens applied across artifact kinds — a website, an app, a slide, a poster. Original mocks re-skinned with this system, not screenshots.

Design tokens
56 tokens conforming to the OpenDesign token contract — the same structured palette, type, spacing, and motion values your agent reads to theme any artifact.

Design System Inspired by Gradient
Category: Morphism & Effects Smooth color transitions and gradient-rich surfaces for modern, playful interfaces with visual depth.
1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere
Smooth color transitions and gradient-rich surfaces for modern, playful interfaces with visual depth.
- Visual style: modern, playful
- Color stance: primary, secondary, neutral, success, warning, danger
- Design intent: Keep outputs recognizable to this style family while preserving usability and readability.
2. Color
- Primary:
#990FFA— Token from style foundations. - Secondary:
#E60076— Token from style foundations. - Success:
#16A34A— Token from style foundations. - Warning:
#D97706— Token from style foundations. - Danger:
#DC2626— Token from style foundations. - Surface:
#FFFFFF— Token from style foundations. - Text:
#111827— Token from style foundations. - Neutral:
#FFFFFF— Derived from the surface token for official format compatibility.
- Favor Primary (#990FFA) for CTA emphasis.
- Use Surface (#FFFFFF) for large backgrounds and cards.
- Keep body copy on Text (#111827) for legibility.
3. Typography
- Scale: 12/14/16/18/24/30/36
- Families: primary=Montserrat, display=Space Grotesk, mono=JetBrains Mono
- Weights: 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900
- Headings should carry the style personality; body text should optimize scanability and contrast.
4. Spacing & Grid
- Spacing scale: 8pt baseline grid
- Keep vertical rhythm consistent across sections and components.
- Align columns and modules to a predictable grid; avoid ad-hoc offsets.
5. Layout & Composition
- Prefer clear content blocks with consistent internal padding.
- Keep hierarchy obvious: headline → support text → primary action.
- Use whitespace to separate concerns before adding borders or shadows.
6. Components
- Buttons: primary action uses
#990FFA; secondary actions stay neutral. - Inputs: strong focus-visible states, clear labels, and predictable error messaging.
- Cards/sections: use consistent radii, spacing, and elevation strategy across the page.
7. Motion & Interaction
- Use subtle transitions that emphasize Primary (#990FFA) as the interaction signal.
- Default to short, purposeful transitions (150–250ms) with stable easing.
- Ensure hover, focus-visible, active, disabled, and loading states are explicit.
8. Voice & Brand
- Tone should reflect the visual style: concise, confident, and product-specific.
- Keep microcopy action-oriented and avoid generic filler language.
- Preserve the style identity in headlines while keeping UI labels literal and clear.
9. Anti-patterns
- Do not introduce off-palette colors when an existing token can solve the problem.
- Do not flatten hierarchy by using the same type size/weight for all text.
- Do not add decorative effects that reduce readability or accessibility.
- Do not mix unrelated visual metaphors in the same interface.
