Teslapunk
Reference for retrofuturismo & ficção especulativa Teslapunk. Retrofuturist genre built around Nikola Tesla-era electrical imagining — the turn-of-the-century dream of a 'wireless electrical future' powered by high-voltage coils, arc lightning, and wireless power transmission (Wardenclyffe Tower, the Tesla coil).
Use case: hero, superfície, conteúdo e grade responsiva; Crackling blue-white arc-lightning motifs; Polished copper and brass coil detailing

Historical Context
Retrofuturist genre built around Nikola Tesla-era electrical imagining — the turn-of-the-century dream of a 'wireless electrical future' powered by high-voltage coils, arc lightning, and wireless power transmission (Wardenclyffe Tower, the Tesla coil). Example: Tesla's Colorado Springs and Wardenclyffe experiments; period illustrations of induction coils and arc-lightning demonstrations..

## Overview
Teslapunk visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Crackling blue-white arc-lightning motifs; Polished copper and brass coil detailing
- **Category:** retrofuturism
- **Era:** 1890s–1920s (imagined future, revival ongoing)
- **Origin:** Retrofuturist genre built around Nikola Tesla-era electrical imagining — the turn-of-the-century dream of a 'wireless electrical future' powered by high-voltage coils, arc lightning, and wireless power transmission (Wardenclyffe Tower, the Tesla coil).
- **Reference:** Tesla's Colorado Springs and Wardenclyffe experiments; period illustrations of induction coils and arc-lightning demonstrations.
- **Structural base:** hero, superfície, conteúdo e grade responsiva
**Defining traits:**
- Crackling blue-white arc-lightning motifs
- Polished copper and brass coil detailing
- Deep midnight-blue backgrounds
- Glowing filament/vacuum-tube light sources; wireless-electrical-future optimism
## Colors
- **bg** — #060b1a
- **surface** — #0d1830
- **surface-2** — #142544
- **text** — #eaf4ff
- **text-muted** — #9fb8d9
- **primary** — #4fd8ff
- **accent** — #d98a3d
- **brass** — #c9a24b
- **copper** — #a8622f
## Typography
- Display: 'Cinzel', 'Cormorant', serif
- Body: 'Cormorant', 'EB Garamond', system-ui, 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
- Crackling blue-white arc-lightning motifs; Polished copper and brass coil detailing; Deep midnight-blue backgrounds; Glowing filament/vacuum-tube light sources; wireless-electrical-future optimism; sombras e elevação; transparência e blur
## Shapes
- Radius scale: 3px, 10px, 22px.
## 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.

## Implementation Checklist
- Contraste WCAG AA; foco visível; navegação por teclado; estados hover/pressed; responsividade; prefers-reduced-motion; Tailwind v4 via @theme.
## Execution Rules
1. Strictly follow the defined visual style.
2. Use high-quality inline SVG icons (Heroicons or Lucide style) — NEVER use emojis as icons.
3. Add `cursor-pointer` and smooth `hover` states (transition-all) on all interactive elements.
4. Required Page Structure:
- Navbar (Logo + Links + CTA)
- Hero Section (Impactful Headline + Subtitle + 2 buttons + 3D/Abstract visual element via CSS)
- Features (3 cards with icons)
- Testimonials (3 cards)
- Pricing (3 tiers, highlight the middle one)
- Final CTA
- Full Footer with social links, privacy policy, terms of use, contact and SEO links.
5. All text content must be in English.
6. The visual must be CLEARLY distinct — do not create a "default Bootstrap" design. Force the use of the provided design system variables.
7. Use `<style>` tags in the head for custom classes (especially for complex backdrop-filter effects and animations) that Tailwind CDN doesn't cover.
8. Full Responsiveness: Layout must adapt perfectly to Mobile, Tablet and Desktop (vertical stack on mobile).
9. Include basic SEO, Viewport and Open Graph meta tags in `<head>`.
10. Footer must contain: Copyright 2026, Secondary navigation links and Social media icons.
11. Make the creative decisions needed to deliver the complete, functional result now.Related
