# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome

Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #c5d0d4;
  --surface: #3c3c3e;
  --foreground: #ffffff;
  --muted-foreground: #a1a1a6;
  --accent: #30d158;
  --radius: 16px;
  --font-heading: "SF Pro", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "SF Pro", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #C5D0D4 (~62%) · Surface #3C3C3E (~22%) · Text #FFFFFF (~6%) · Muted Text #A1A1A6 (~5%) · Accent #30D158 (~5%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D
- Navigation: No Explicit Nav
- Theme & density: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Large Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Interactive Hero Demo / Tool
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Floating Multi-Cards, Large Hero Product Shot
- Spatial layout notes: Full-Bleed Canvas / Video / 3D hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Minimal Monochrome (Light canvas, balanced density) featuring full-bleed canvas / video / 3d layout and interactive hero demo / tool visuals.

## Avoid

- Multi-stop neon gradients
- Heavy drop shadows
- More than one competing accent color

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.
