Principles
The rules that govern every design decision.
Quiet, not decorative
Color, type, and motion report state. If a flourish doesn't earn its space, cut it.
Cool, not cold
Serious by default, briefly warm at moments that matter. Dusk is a thinking partner's palette.
Editorial over corporate
Grotesk headlines, mono metadata, generous negative space. Reads like a well-set document.
Motion reports, not performs
Fast by default (200ms). Longer only when the motion is the message.
Dense where it counts
Chat, tables, and live activity are compact and legible. Landing surfaces breathe.
One mark everywhere
Use the new Foundable logomark consistently across product, auth, onboarding, and social previews.
Logomark
The current Foundable mark. Use the PNG asset directly; do not recreate it with CSS gradients.
Never redraw the mark as a CSS gradient or mascot face. Use the exported PNG assets so the logo stays crisp, consistent, and recognizable everywhere.
Color: Dusk
Brand accent, a monochrome near-black (near-white in dark), used for links, active states, focus rings, and brand moments. Product actions use the action palette below.

Color: Actions
Filled product actions use the action palette, distinct from the dusk accent. Keep this palette for save, publish, install, invite, and other primary buttons.
