# Design Brief: Dark Developer
Deep dark surfaces, monospace typography, terminal/code snippets, and high-precision borders.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #292929;
--surface: #353535;
--foreground: #f5f5f5;
--muted-foreground: #c5c5c5;
--accent: #c91f27;
--radius: 4px;
--font-heading: "Roboto Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
--font-body: "Arial", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "Roboto Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #292929 (~79%) · Surface #353535 (~5%) · Text #F5F5F5 (~8%) · Muted Text #C5C5C5 (~4%) · Accent #C91F27 (~4%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.
