- **Structural base:** grade modular responsiva

**Defining traits:**
- Glossy translucent 'blobjects' and chrome
- Metallic silver, icy blues, hot pink accents
- Bubble/inflatable UI, lens flares, starbursts
- Techno-optimism, iMac G3 / bubble tech

## Colors

- Body: 'Michroma', 'Eurostile', 'Arial', sans-serif
- Mono: ui-monospace, monospace

## Layout

- grade modular responsiva
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.

## Elevation & Depth

- Glossy translucent 'blobjects' and chrome; Metallic silver, icy blues, hot pink accents; Bubble/inflatable UI, lens flares, starbursts; Techno-optimism, iMac G3 / bubble tech; sombras e elevação; transparência e blur

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 8px, 18px, 999px.

## 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.
