# Design Brief: Retro & Nostalgic

Pixel typography, classic OS window chrome, or warm vintage print palettes.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #0c0c0c;
  --surface: #161616;
  --foreground: #f5f5f5;
  --muted-foreground: #a3a3a3;
  --accent: #3b82f6;
  --radius: 4px;
  --font-heading: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #0C0C0C (~42%) · Surface #161616 (~12%) · Text #F5F5F5 (~8%) · Muted Text #A3A3A3 (~8%) · Accent #3B82F6 (~30%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Headline Over Large Product Shot
- Navigation: No Explicit Nav
- Theme & density: Dark · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Small Radius; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: 3D Render / Tactile Object
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Spatial layout notes: Headline Over Large Product Shot hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Retro & Nostalgic (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring headline over large product shot layout and 3d render / tactile object visuals.

## Avoid

- Generic modern corporate gradients
- Inconsistent mixing of modern flat UI and retro chrome

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
