# kargul.studio Design System

## Overview

kargul.studio describes itself as: “A design and engineering partner for scale-ups and enterprise products.” The interface is light, built on **Mist (#EFEFEF)** with **Charcoal (#232323)** text and almost no color: actions are carried by contrast, not hue.

Type is set in **Geist**. Headlines run large with tight negative tracking; body text is 18px. Depth comes from soft drop shadows. Corners are mostly 28.8px.

Measured from [kargul.studio](https://kargul.studio/) on October 30, 2026 at 1440×900 and 390×844 from 323 rendered elements. Values are computed styles from the live page, not the original source files.

## Colors

The palette has 11 roles.

- **Mist (#EFEFEF):** Page background, seen 5 times. Token `background`, CSS `--primary-foreground`.
- **Charcoal (#232323):** Primary text and headings, seen 51 times. Token `on-surface`, CSS `--card-foreground`.
- **Slate (#707070):** Secondary text, seen 19 times. Token `on-surface-variant`.
- **Gray (#9D9D9D):** Muted text and metadata, seen 36 times. Token `on-surface-muted`, CSS `--dark-muted`.
- **White (#FFFFFF):** Raised areas one step from the page, seen 26 times. Token `surface-container-low`, CSS `--card`.
- **Charcoal 40% (#23232366):** Translucent fill for cards and controls, seen 29 times. Token `overlay`.
- **Silver (#DBDBDB):** Borders and dividers, seen 10 times. Token `outline`, CSS `--divider`.
- **Snow 24% (#F5F5F53D):** Secondary dividers, seen 1 time. Token `outline-variant`.
- **Charcoal (#232323):** Primary buttons and calls to action, seen 87 times. Token `primary`, CSS `--card-foreground`.
- **Mist (#EFEFEF):** Text and icons on primary. Token `on-primary`.
- **Green (#1DAF61):** Accent in text, fills and borders, seen 2 times. Token `secondary`, CSS `--success`.

## Typography

**Geist** carries the whole interface. Fallback stack: `Geist, Geist Fallback`.

- **headline-display:** Geist 52px at weight 700, line height 1.07, tracking -0.03em (28.5px on mobile). Page title (h1).
- **headline-lg:** Geist 36px at weight 700, line height 1.16, tracking -0.03em (28.5px on mobile). Section headings (h2).
- **body-md:** Geist 18px at weight 700, line height 1.33, tracking -0.01em. Body text.
- **label-lg:** Geist 16px at weight 500, line height 1.5. Large buttons and tabs.
- **label-md:** Geist 15px at weight 700, line height 1.2, tracking -0.008em. Buttons, navigation and labels.
- **label-sm:** Geist 14px at weight 500, line height 1.57. Small labels and badges.

## Layout

Spacing does not follow a strict grid: 52% of measured values are multiples of 4px, so match the measured steps rather than rounding to a grid.

- **Scale:** xs 2.17px, sm 7.5px, md 12px, lg 18px, xl 56px.
- **Gaps:** 24px is the most common gap in flex and grid layouts.
- **Breakpoints:** 375px, 400px, 450px.

## Elevation & Depth

Raised elements use soft drop shadows. The most used recipes:

- `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(35, 35, 35, 0.08) 0px 8px 32px 0px`

## Shapes

Most elements use 28.8px corners. Measured radii, most used first:

- **md (28.8px):** 28 elements.
- **sm (18px):** 20 elements.
- **xl (38px):** 16 elements.
- **lg (36px):** 8 elements.
- **xs (16px):** 4 elements.

## Components

Measured from the rendered page. Token values reference the tokens above.

- **button-primary (“Start a project”):** #232323 fill, #EFEFEF text, 15px/700, 3.35544e+07px radius, padding 18px 24px.
- **button-outline (“Start a project”):** #FFFFFF fill, #232323 text, 13px/700, 3.35544e+07px radius, padding 12px 18px.
- **button-ghost (“Cookie settings”):** transparent fill, #232323 text, 14px/700, 3.35544e+07px radius, padding 11px 0px.
- **card:** #FFFFFF fill, #232323 text, 13px/700, 3.35544e+07px radius, padding 12px 18px.
- **link:** transparent fill, #9D9D9D text, padding 0px.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use #EFEFEF for the page and lift surfaces in small steps: #FFFFFF.
- Do keep text in 3 levels: #232323, #707070, #9D9D9D.
- Do let contrast carry emphasis; primary actions use #232323 on #EFEFEF.
- Do set headlines in Geist with tight tracking (-0.03em).
- Do reuse the measured spacing steps (7.5px, 12px, 18px).
- Do use 28.8px corners on most elements; larger surfaces also use 18px, 38px and 36px.
- Don't use #707070 for body text; it reaches 4.31:1 on #EFEFEF. Keep it for large text or metadata.
- Don't use #9D9D9D for body text; it reaches 2.36:1 on #EFEFEF. Keep it for large text or metadata.
- Don't introduce new font families beyond Geist.
- Don't add saturated accent colors; the measured palette is almost entirely neutral.
- Don't make interface transitions slower than 0.5s.

## Motion

Interface transitions are quick: 0.3s, 0.5s. Longer ambient animations run 2.05s, 1s.

- **Easing:** `cubic-bezier(0.76, 0, 0.24, 1)`, `cubic-bezier(0.7, 0, 0, 1)`, `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)`.
- **Reduced motion:** the page responds to `prefers-reduced-motion`.
