## Overview

Hyperrealism UI visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Photorealistic materials and reflections; Physically plausible lighting

- **Category:** morphism
- **Era:** 2008–2013
- **Origin:** High-water mark of skeuomorphic app design.
- **Reference:** Korg iMS-20 synth app; early podcast/voice-memo apps.
- **Structural base:** shell de aplicação com navegação e cartões

**Defining traits:**
- Photorealistic materials and reflections
- Physically plausible lighting
- Detailed micro-textures
- Tactile knobs, dials, switches

## Colors

- **bg** — #2a2a2c
- **surface** — #38383b
- **surface-strong** — #46464a
- **border** — #1c1c1e
- **text** — #f5f5f2
- **text-muted** — #b8b8b4
- **primary** — #3ea6ff
- **accent** — #ffb238
- **highlight** — rgba(255,255,255,0.22)

## Typography

- Display: 'Helvetica Neue', 'Futura', sans-serif
- Body: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif
- Mono: ui-monospace, 'Menlo', monospace

## Layout

- shell de aplicação com navegação e cartões
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.

## Elevation & Depth

- Photorealistic materials and reflections; Physically plausible lighting; Detailed micro-textures; Tactile knobs, dials, switches; sombras e elevação

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 6px, 10px, 16px.

## 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.
