Identity

Logo & brand mark

The MC monogram pairs a bold display wordmark with a rounded tangerine tile. Keep clear space around it and use the light variant on dark backgrounds.

Foundations

Color tokens

Semantic tokens defined in globals.css. Reference them through Tailwind classes like bg-primary or text-muted-foreground — never hard-coded hex values.

Brand accents

--primary

Primary / Brand

Tangerine. CTAs, key accents.

--highlight

Highlight

Sunny yellow. Callouts, badges.

--cool

Cool

Teal. Secondary accent.

Neutrals & surfaces

--background

Warm cream page base.

--card

--muted

Muted

Subtle fills.

--foreground

Foreground

Text & borders.

Use 3–5 colors per screen: cream background, dark foreground text, one dominant accent (tangerine), plus yellow and teal as supporting pops. Every accent has a paired -foreground token for accessible text contrast.

Typography

Two families do all the work: Bricolage Grotesque for expressive display headings and Inter for clean, readable body copy.

Components

Buttons & links

Rounded pill actions with three variants and two sizes. Consistent focus rings and a subtle press state keep interactions tactile.

Variants

Sizes

All actions are fully rounded pills from CtaLink / CtaButton. Use primary for the main action on a screen, and at most one per section.

Components

Cards & surfaces

The SurfaceCard primitive standardizes the three container styles used across the site, from the signature pop card to quieter panels.

Pop

Signature card with hard offset shadow. Used for services and features.

Soft

Quieter bordered surface for dense content, lists, and nested panels.

Dashed

Callout surface for prompts like “have an idea that doesn't fit in a box?”
