## Overview

Design an elegant and aspirational editorial landing page for a luxury travel blog. Ideal for landing pages, modern websites. AI-ready template. The luxury travel editorial owes everything to print. Condé Nast Traveler established the formula in the eighties: full-bleed photography, restrained serif typography, and white space treated as a material rather than absence. Monocle refined it further — tighter grids, considered paper stock choices, a rejection of visual noise. The magazine said: we respect your intelligence enough to let the image breathe.

Translating this to screens required killing sacred cows. The fixed column gave way to fluid containers. But the core tension remained — photography must dominate without becoming wallpaper. The best digital travel editorials (Cereal, Kinfolk's travel issues, Suitcase Magazine online) solve this by treating viewport height as their bleed edge. One image. Full screen. Then text arrives with ceremony, not apology.

What separates luxury travel layouts from generic blog templates isn't budget — it's restraint. Every element earns its pixel. The typography doesn't compete with Santorini sunsets; it frames them. Negative space isn't laziness, it's the visual equivalent of a pause between courses at a tasting menu.

## Layout

- **Grid:** CSS Grid primary. Max-width containment: 1280px centered with 1.5rem side padding.
- **Spacing rhythm:** Balanced. Base unit: 0.5rem (8px).
- **Section vertical gaps:** clamp(4rem, 8vw, 8rem).
- **Hero layout:** Split-screen (text left, visual right).
- **Feature sections:** Zig-zag alternating text+image rows. No 3-equal-columns.
- **Mobile collapse:** All multi-column layouts collapse below 768px. No horizontal overflow.
- **z-index contract:** base (0) / sticky-nav (100) / overlay (200) / modal (300) / toast (500).


## Elevation & Depth

Imagens de destinos em tela cheia, tipografia serifada clássica para títulos e sans-serif para corpo, layouts de coluna variados, micro-interações de hover em imagens com descrições, transições de seção suaves e com paralaxe, elementos decorativos de mapa e bússola.

- **Physics:** Ease-out curves, 200-300ms duration. Smooth and predictable.
- **Entry animations:** Fade + translate-Y (16px → 0) over 420ms ease-out. Staggered cascades for lists: 80ms between items.
- **Hover states:** Subtle color shift + shadow adjustment over 200ms.
- **Page transitions:** Fade only (200ms).
- **Performance:** Only transform and opacity animated. No layout-triggering properties.


## Shapes

Base corner radius: 12px. See rounded tokens in front matter for the full scale.


## Components

- **Primary Button:** Moderately rounded (0.75rem) shape. Accent color fill. Hover: 8% darken + subtle lift shadow. Active: -1px translate tactile press. Font weight 600. No outer glows.
- **Secondary / Ghost Button:** Outline variant. 1.5px border in muted color. Text in primary color. Hover: subtle background fill.
- **Cards:** Moderately rounded (0.75rem) corners. Surface background. Subtle shadow (0 2px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.06)). 1px border stroke.
- **Inputs:** Label above input. 1px border stroke. Focus ring: 2px accent color offset 2px. Error text below in semantic red. No floating labels.
- **Navigation:** Primary surface background. Active item: accent color indicator. Font weight 500 when active.
- **Skeletons:** Shimmer animation matching component dimensions. No circular spinners.
- **Empty States:** Icon-based composition with descriptive text and action button.


## Do's and Don'ts

- No pure black (#000000) — use off-black or charcoal variants
- No oversaturated accent colors (saturation cap: 80%)
- No 3-column equal-width feature layouts — use zig-zag or asymmetric grid
- No `h-screen` — use `min-h-[100dvh]`
- No AI copywriting clichés: "Elevate", "Seamless", "Unleash", "Next-Gen"
- No broken external image links — use picsum.photos or inline SVG
- No generic lorem ipsum in demos
