This is one of the big reasons I started Localize, to make it an order of magnitude easier for information or knowledge to transfer from person to person, despite a difference in language. On openness, we've decided to share things companies normally don't share. We're starting with

# Design Brief: Gradient Glow (with Enterprise Clean)

Luminous radial glows and translucent glass panels, widely used across modern AI products.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #20114d;
  --surface: #ffffff;
  --foreground: #f9f8fc;
  --muted-foreground: #9296b4;
  --accent: #592bf0;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Georgia", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Arial", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #20114D (~47%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~30%) · Text #F9F8FC (~6%) · Muted Text #9296B4 (~10%) · Accent #592BF0 (~7%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Split Copy & Visual
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Dark · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Medium Radius; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Illustration / Character Art
- Conversion CTA: Book Demo / Contact Sales
- Headline hook: Pain Relief & Replacement
- Hero components: Custom Illustration
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with book demo / contact sales CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Gradient Glow (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring split copy & visual layout and illustration / character art visuals.

## Avoid

- Muddy low-contrast text over gradients
- Overuse of full-screen rainbow backgrounds
- Cluttered dense tables in the hero

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.
