## Overview

Together AI-inspired pastel cloud landing page. Ideal for infraestrutura ai, cloud computing, plataformas de modelos, gpu clusters. AI-ready template. The pastel cloud aesthetic in tech branding didn't emerge from nowhere — it's a direct descendant of the vaporwave-to-corporate pipeline that dominated 2018-2021, filtered through the lens of AI companies desperate to appear approachable. Together's visual identity sits at an interesting inflection point: infrastructure companies historically defaulted to dark themes, terminal greens, and brutalist grids to signal seriousness. Together broke from that orthodoxy by embracing soft gradients and ethereal cloud forms, essentially saying 'yes, we run GPU clusters, but we're not going to make you feel like you need a PhD to use them.'

The pastel palette specifically borrows from illustration traditions — watercolor washes, risograph printing, and the Japanese kawaii aesthetic that infiltrated Western design through apps like Notion and Linear. What makes Together's approach distinct is the tension between the softness of the palette and the industrial scale of what they actually do. It's a deliberate misdirection, and honestly, it works. The cloud motif does double duty: literal (cloud computing) and atmospheric (dreamy, boundless possibility). That duality is rare in infrastructure branding, where most competitors still lean on circuit-board metaphors that stopped feeling fresh around 2015.

- **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: 4px. See rounded tokens in front matter for the full scale.


## Components

- **Primary Button:** Sharp edges (0px) 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.

- 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
