## Overview

CRT / Scanline / Retro Monitor visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Horizontal scanlines and screen curvature; Phosphor glow and bloom

- **Category:** texture
- **Era:** Evokes 1970s–90s
- **Origin:** Emulation of cathode-ray-tube displays.
- **Reference:** Retro game emulators; Fallout terminals; VHS/CRT web filters.
- **Structural base:** superfície material com conteúdo em camadas

**Defining traits:**
- Horizontal scanlines and screen curvature
- Phosphor glow and bloom
- RGB subpixel/aperture-grille texture
- Flicker, vignette, chromatic edges

## Colors

- **bg** — #06110a
- **surface** — #0b1f13
- **surface-strong** — #123020
- **border** — #2f6b45
- **text** — #7dffb0
- **text-muted** — #4fbf82
- **primary** — #39ff88
- **accent** — #ff5fa2
- **phosphor-glow** — rgba(57, 255, 136, 0.45)

## Typography

- Display: 'Press Start 2P', 'VT323', monospace
- Body: 'VT323', 'Share Tech Mono', ui-monospace, monospace
- Mono: 'Share Tech Mono', ui-monospace, monospace

## Layout

- superfície material com conteúdo em camadas
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.

## Elevation & Depth

- Horizontal scanlines and screen curvature; Phosphor glow and bloom; RGB subpixel/aperture-grille texture; Flicker, vignette, chromatic edges; sombras e elevação

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 2px, 4px, 8px.

## 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.
