# Design Brief: Retro & Nostalgic (with Dark Developer)

Pixel typography, classic OS window chrome, or warm vintage print palettes.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #12100e;
  --surface: #292521;
  --foreground: #f3eee5;
  --muted-foreground: #a49a8d;
  --accent: #e99532;
  --radius: 8px;
  --font-heading: "Press Start 2P", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "system-ui", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-mono: "Press Start 2P", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #12100E (~70%) · Surface #292521 (~12%) · Text #F3EEE5 (~8%) · Muted Text #A49A8D (~6%) · Accent #E99532 (~4%). 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: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Start Free / Sign Up · Trust bar uses Live Generated Output Showcase
- Headline hook: Target Audience Callout
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Interactive Hero Tool, Metrics Strip
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with start free / sign up CTA and live generated output showcase.
- Visual summary: Retro & Nostalgic (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring split copy & visual layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.

## Avoid

- Generic modern corporate gradients
- Inconsistent mixing of modern flat UI and retro chrome

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.
