## Overview
Traumacore visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Childlike imagery (stickers, pastel) + heavy text; Faded nostalgic photos
- **Category:** niche
- **Era:** 2020–present
- **Origin:** Bittersweet childhood-nostalgia-with-pain aesthetic.
- **Reference:** Traumacore edits (sensitive-content subculture).
- **Structural base:** hero, superfície, conteúdo e grade responsiva
**Defining traits:**
- Childlike imagery (stickers, pastel) + heavy text
- Faded nostalgic photos
- Juxtaposition of innocence and distress
- Emotionally raw
## Colors
- **bg** — #f5e1ea
- **surface** — #fdf3f7
- **surface-strong** — #efd0de
- **border** — #1a1a1a
- **text** — #1a1a1a
- **text-muted** — #6b5560
- **primary** — #ff4d6d
- **accent** — #9ec9e8
- **sticker** — #fff27a
## Typography
- Display: 'Permanent Marker', 'Caveat', cursive
- Body: 'Comic Neue', 'Chalkboard', 'Comic Sans MS', sans-serif
- Mono: ui-monospace, monospace
## Layout
- hero, superfície, conteúdo e grade responsiva
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.
## Elevation & Depth
- Childlike imagery (stickers, pastel) + heavy text; Faded nostalgic photos; Juxtaposition of innocence and distress; Emotionally raw; sombras e elevação
## Shapes
- Radius scale: 2px, 4px, 6px.
## Components
- Buttons keep visible focus and predictable hover/pressed states.
- Cards use the surface and radius scale from the tokens.
- Forms expose persistent labels, textual errors, and keyboard focus.
## Do's and Don'ts
- Do: follow the tokens and the structural composition.
- Do: maintain WCAG AA contrast and `prefers-reduced-motion`.
- Avoid: using the style as decoration without functional hierarchy.

## Implementation Checklist
- Contraste WCAG AA; foco visível; navegação por teclado; estados hover/pressed; responsividade; prefers-reduced-motion; Tailwind v4 via @theme.
## Execution Rules
1. Strictly follow the defined visual style.
2. Use high-quality inline SVG icons (Heroicons or Lucide style) — NEVER use emojis as icons.
3. Add `cursor-pointer` and smooth `hover` states (transition-all) on all interactive elements.
4. Required Page Structure:
- Navbar (Logo + Links + CTA)
- Hero Section (Impactful Headline + Subtitle + 2 buttons + 3D/Abstract visual element via CSS)
- Features (3 cards with icons)
- Testimonials (3 cards)
- Pricing (3 tiers, highlight the middle one)
- Final CTA
- Full Footer with social links, privacy policy, terms of use, contact and SEO links.
5. All text content must be in English.
6. The visual must be CLEARLY distinct — do not create a "default Bootstrap" design. Force the use of the provided design system variables.
7. Use `<style>` tags in the head for custom classes (especially for complex backdrop-filter effects and animations) that Tailwind CDN doesn't cover.
8. Full Responsiveness: Layout must adapt perfectly to Mobile, Tablet and Desktop (vertical stack on mobile).
9. Include basic SEO, Viewport and Open Graph meta tags in `<head>`.
10. Footer must contain: Copyright 2026, Secondary navigation links and Social media icons.
11. Make the creative decisions needed to deliver the complete, functional result now.Related
