# Design Brief: Editorial
Oversized serif headlines, narrow reading columns, and magazine-inspired grid layouts.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #f6f5f0;
--surface: #ffffff;
--foreground: #1c1917;
--muted-foreground: #7a746c;
--accent: #d4f062;
--radius: 8px;
--font-heading: "Instrument Serif", serif;
--font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #F6F5F0 (~46%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~26%) · Text #1C1917 (~10%) · Muted Text #7A746C (~6%) · Accent #D4F062 (~12%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
