# Design Brief: Neo-Brutalism (with Dark Developer)
Bold black strokes, hard offset shadows, and high-saturation color blocks.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #ddd7c8;
--surface: #ffffff;
--foreground: #111111;
--muted-foreground: #666666;
--accent: #f5c242;
--radius: 4px;
--font-heading: "Space Grotesk", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
--font-mono: "JetBrains Mono", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #DDD7C8 (~35%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~45%) · Text #111111 (~12%) · Muted Text #666666 (~5%) · Accent #F5C242 (~3%). 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: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Small Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Code Block / Terminal / CLI
- Conversion CTA: Start Free / Sign Up · Trust bar uses Customer / Press Logo Strip
- Headline hook: Pain Relief & Replacement
- Hero components: Code & Terminal, Customer Logo Wall
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with start free / sign up CTA and customer / press logo strip.
- Visual summary: Neo-Brutalism (Light canvas, balanced density) featuring split copy & visual layout and code block / terminal / cli visuals.
## Avoid
- Soft blurred shadows
- Low-contrast gray-on-gray borders
- Subtle translucent glassmorphism
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.
