## Overview

Constructivism visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Bold diagonals and dynamic asymmetry; Red, black, cream; heavy sans/slab type

- **Category:** historical
- **Era:** 1915–1930s
- **Origin:** Russia/USSR (Alexander Rodchenko, El Lissitzky, Stenberg brothers).
- **Reference:** Rodchenko posters; El Lissitzky 'Beat the Whites with the Red Wedge'.
- **Structural base:** composição editorial com grade tipográfica

**Defining traits:**
- Bold diagonals and dynamic asymmetry
- Red, black, cream; heavy sans/slab type
- Photomontage, geometric shapes as propaganda
- Industrial, purposeful, revolutionary

## Colors

- **bg** — #f0ece1
- **surface** — #ffffff
- **text** — #141414
- **text-muted** — #3a3a3a
- **primary** — #d7261e
- **accent** — #141414
- **cream** — #f0ece1

## Typography

- Display: 'Anton', 'Oswald', sans-serif
- Body: 'Alternate Gothic', 'Oswald', 'Anton', sans-serif
- Mono: ui-monospace, monospace

## Layout

- composição editorial com grade tipográfica
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.

## Elevation & Depth

- Bold diagonals and dynamic asymmetry; Red, black, cream; heavy sans/slab type; Photomontage, geometric shapes as propaganda; Industrial, purposeful, revolutionary; sombras e elevação; transparência e blur

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 0px, 0px, 0px.

## 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.
