## Overview

Dark Mode visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Dark neutral backgrounds (#0d0d12-ish, not pure black); Desaturated accent colors to avoid vibration

- **Category:** minimal-organic
- **Era:** 2018–present
- **Origin:** Mainstreamed by iOS/Android/macOS dark themes (2018–2019).
- **Reference:** System dark modes; Linear; developer tools.
- **Structural base:** hero, superfície, conteúdo e grade responsiva

**Defining traits:**
- Dark neutral backgrounds (#0d0d12-ish, not pure black)
- Desaturated accent colors to avoid vibration
- Elevation via lighter surfaces, not shadow
- Reduced eye strain, OLED-friendly

## Colors

- **bg** — #0c0c10
- **surface** — #16161c
- **surface-strong** — #1e1e26
- **border** — rgba(255,255,255,0.09)
- **text** — #e8e8ec
- **text-muted** — #9a9aa5
- **primary** — #7c9cff
- **accent** — #7fd9c4

## Typography

- Display: 'Inter', system-ui, sans-serif
- Body: 'Inter', -apple-system, system-ui, sans-serif
- Mono: 'JetBrains 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

- Dark neutral backgrounds (#0d0d12-ish, not pure black); Desaturated accent colors to avoid vibration; Elevation via lighter surfaces, not shadow; Reduced eye strain, OLED-friendly

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 0 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.4), 0 4px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.45), 0 12px 28px rgba(0,0,0,0.5).

## 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.
