75## AI Build Instructions
76
77> **Read this section before writing any code.** The rules below
78> are non-negotiable. Every value used in the UI must come from this
79> file's frontmatter — never substitute, approximate, or invent new
80> colors, fonts, radii, or shadows. If a value is missing, ask the
81> user before adding one.
82
83### 1 · Your role
84
85You are building UI for a project that has adopted **Champagne Foundry** as its
86design system. Treat `DESIGN.md` as the single source of truth.
87Your job is to translate the user's product requirements into
88components and pages that look like they were designed by the same
89person who authored this file.
90
91### 2 · Token compliance
92
93- Pull every color, font family, radius, shadow, and spacing value
94 from the frontmatter at the top of this file.
95- Use semantic roles (e.g. `primary`, `accent`, `muted`) — never
96 hard-code hex values that bypass the system.
97- When a token can be expressed as a CSS variable, declare it once
98 in your global stylesheet and reference it everywhere downstream.
99- The Google Fonts `<link>` is provided in the Typography section.
100 Add it to `<head>` before any component renders.
101
102### 3 · Component recipes
103
104Use these recipes verbatim when building the corresponding component.
105
106#### Buttons
107
108Four variants are defined. Pick one — never blend variants or invent a fifth.
109
110- **Primary** — rounded shape, bg `linear-gradient(180deg, #E6CC92 0%, #C9A96A 50%, #A88848 100%)`, text `#1F1A14`, border `1px solid rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.35)`, padding `12px 26px`, weight `500`, shadow `0 8px 20px -10px rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.40), inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 245, 220, 0.55), inset 0 -1px 0 rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.20)`.
111- **Secondary** — rounded shape, bg `#FBF7EE`, text `#1F1A14`, border `1px solid rgba(122, 107, 88, 0.25)`, padding `12px 26px`, weight `500`.
112- **Outline** — rounded shape, text `#7A6B58`, border `1px solid rgba(122, 107, 88, 0.40)`, padding `11px 24px`, weight `500`.
113- **Ghost** — rounded shape, text `#7A6B58`, padding `11px 4px`, weight `500`.
114
115Reach for **primary** as the single dominant CTA per screen.
116**Secondary** for the supporting action. **Outline** for tertiary
117actions in toolbars. **Ghost** for inline links and table actions.
118
119#### Cards
120
121- Background: `#FBF7EE`
122- Border: `1px solid rgba(122, 107, 88, 0.15)`
123- Shadow: `0 1px 2px rgba(31, 26, 20, 0.04), 0 0 0 1px rgba(122, 107, 88, 0.08)`
124- Radius: `radius.lg` (`6px`)
125- Internal padding: `20px` for compact cards, `24–28px` for content cards.
126
127#### Charts
128
129- Bar/line variant: `line`
130- No gridlines — let the bars/lines carry the data.
131- Highlight strategy: `last` — emphasize a single bar/point per chart.
132- Use the declared palette in order: `#C9A96A`, `#A88848`, `#7A6B58`.
133
134#### Typography pairings
135
136- **Display (`Cormorant Garamond`)** — h1, h2, hero headlines, brand wordmarks.
137- **Body (`Inter`)** — paragraphs, labels, button text, form inputs.
138- **Mono (`JetBrains Mono`)** — code, eyebrows, metadata, numerals in tables.
139
140### 4 · Hard constraints
141
142Never do any of the following without explicit instruction from the user:
143
144- Introduce a new color, font, radius, or shadow that isn't declared above.
145- Mix this system with another (e.g. don't paste in Material or Bootstrap defaults).
146- Use generic gradient defaults (purple→blue, peach→pink) — they break the system's voice.
147- Reach for emoji icons. Use a consistent icon library and size icons in line with body type.
148- Add motion that exceeds the system's restraint — keep transitions short (≤200ms) and subtle.
149
150### 5 · Before you finish — verify
151
152Run through this checklist for every screen you produce:
153
154- [ ] Every color used appears in the Colors table above.
155- [ ] Headlines use the display font; body copy uses the body font.
156- [ ] Buttons match one of the declared variants exactly (shape, padding, weight).
157- [ ] Border-radius values come from `radius.sm` / `radius.md` / `radius.lg` / `radius.pill`.
158- [ ] Cards and dividers use the declared border + shadow tokens.
159- [ ] No values were invented; if you needed something missing, you stopped and asked.

163## Overview
164Champagne Foundry is a warm metallic premium system. Cream paper canvas, deep ink type in a high-contrast serif, and one machined gesture: a brushed champagne primary CTA with a top-edge gloss and a bottom-edge shadow that reads as lit metal.
165
166For high-end consumer brands, watchmakers, private banking, concierge platforms, hospitality. Premium without ostentation — restraint is the whole point.
167
168## The Metallic Gesture
169The primary button is the system's signature. It uses a vertical 3-stop gradient that mimics a lit brushed surface:
170
171```css
172background: linear-gradient(180deg, #E6CC92 0%, #C9A96A 50%, #A88848 100%);
173border: 1px solid rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.35);
174box-shadow:
175 0 8px 20px -10px rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.40),
176 inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 245, 220, 0.55),
177 inset 0 -1px 0 rgba(122, 89, 45, 0.20);
178```
179
180The inner top-edge highlight is what reads as "polished." Without it the button looks flat. The inner bottom-edge shadow gives the metal weight. Both must be present.
181
182**Where it appears:**
183- The primary CTA fill.
184- An optional thin horizontal divider beneath the hero (1px gradient line).
185
186**Where it never appears:**
187- Body text. Card fills. Backgrounds. Logos. Any second button on the page.
188
189## Color
190- **Ink #1F1A14** — primary text.
191- **Bronze #7A6B58** — secondary text, refined captions.
192- **Champagne #C9A96A** — the accent endstop.
193- **Cream Paper #F4EFE6** — page canvas.
194- **Warm Paper #FBF7EE** — card surface.
195
196The system is monochromatic-warm. There is no second hue. Restraint of palette is what allows the metal to feel precious.
197
198## Typography
199- **Display: Cormorant Garamond 400** at 5.5rem with -2.5% tracking. High-contrast serif, never bolded above 500.
200- **Body: Inter 400** at 1rem with **1.7 leading**.
201- Italic Cormorant for emphasis inside hero headlines (one word per hero).
202
203| Role | Font | Size | Weight | Tracking |
204|------|------|------|--------|----------|
205| Hero | Cormorant Garamond | 5.5rem | 400 | -0.025em |
206| H1 | Cormorant Garamond | 3.25rem | 400 | -0.02em |
207| H2 | Cormorant Garamond | 1.625rem | 500 | -0.01em |
208| Body | Inter | 1rem | 400 | 0 / 1.7 |
209
210## Geometry
211- **Radii: 2 / 4 / 6.** Architectural restraint. The metal looks expensive at 4px; at 12px it looks cheap.
212- **Section gap: 160px** desktop, 96px mobile. Air around the metal is mandatory.
213- **Card padding: 40px** minimum.
214
215## Buttons
216- **Primary** — brushed champagne with the full gloss/shadow stack. The single most precious element on the page.
217- **Secondary** — warm paper, 25% bronze hairline.
218- **Outline** — transparent with a 40% bronze hairline.
219- **Ghost** — bare bronze label, hover underline.
220
221All four are softly rounded at 4px. The rest is restraint.
222
223## Cards
224Warm paper surface, 1px bronze hairline at 15%, a 1px shadow at 4%. Radius 6px. Cards never lift — the page is a layered paper composition, not a stack of floating tiles.
225
226## Charts & Data
227A single 1.5px champagne line over the cream canvas, no gridlines, no fills. A champagne dot at the latest reading. The chart should feel like a hand-engraved plot.
228
229## Do's and Don'ts
230- ✅ The metallic gradient appears once per page — the primary CTA. That's it.
231- ✅ Always include the inner top-edge highlight + inner bottom-edge shadow. Without them the metal dies.
232- ✅ Cormorant 400 for display — never bolded above 500. The serif's contrast is the elegance.
233- ✅ Italic Cormorant on one accent word per hero, max.
234- ❌ No second metallic surface. No silver, no rose-gold, no chrome.
235- ❌ No drop shadows beyond the warm bronze underglow on the primary CTA.
236- ❌ No pills. No 12px+ radii. The metal needs sharp edges to read as crafted.
237- ❌ No saturated chromatic accents. The system is warm-monochrome.
