Decoded design system

Max Mobile's decoded design system: background #120C1D, text #FFFFFF, accent #0E2F5D, link #71B8F2, primary #0E2F5D; type scale h1 64px / h2 56px / body 18px; 8px spacing base; 12px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #3D6A99 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #3D6A99 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary, accent are all #0E2F5D — one role, not several (the action color).
• accent #0E2F5D — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
• link #71B8F2 — inline text links and link-styled controls.

# Max Mobile — Design System

> dark, consumer, high — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#120C1D` |
| surface | `#201A2A` |
| border | `#35303E` |
| text | `#FFFFFF` |
| text_muted | `#A4A2A9` |
| primary | `#0E2F5D` |
| accent | `#0E2F5D` |
| link | `#71B8F2` |
| button_bg | `#3D6A99` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#3D6A99` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `accent` are all `#0E2F5D` — one role, not several.
- **accent** `#0E2F5D` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **link** `#71B8F2` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#000000` 51.9% · `#191919` 27.7% · `#626262` 16.5% · `#323437` 3.9%

## Typography

- Heading: **Max Sans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **Max Sans** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 64px / 700 · lh 70px |
| h2 | 56px / 100 · lh 90px |
| h3 | 35px / 600 · lh 47px |
| body | 18px / 400 · lh 29px |
| small | 17px / 400 · lh 16px · tracking 0.85px |
| eyebrow | 10px / 600 · tracking 0.8px |

- Weight ladder: 100 · 300 · 400 · 600 · 700 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

> **Fonts —** Max Sans may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts).

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 4px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 13px, 15px, 16px, 24px, 27px, 28px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 48px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 12px
- button: 8px
- card: 8px
- sharp: 3px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#3D6A99` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) | 8px | 13px 24px 13px 24px | 700 16px | none |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) | 8px | 10px 24px 10px 24px | 700 14px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: background `rgba(61, 106, 153, 0.75)`

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(150, 41, 188, 0.314) 0px -5px 30px 0px`
- overlay: `rgba(79, 105, 132, 0.8) 0px -5px 30px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 500ms (dominant) · 400ms · 150ms
- easings: `ease-in-out` (dominant) · `ease`
- animated properties: transform, opacity, background-color

Micro-interactions use the dominant duration + easing; nothing on the page animates slower than the longest duration above — don't invent springier motion.

## Their own tokens (verbatim from :root)

| Token | Value |
|-------|-------|
| `--emea-plan-picker-button-color` | `#3D6A99` |
| `--emea-plan-picker-button-hover-color` | `rgba(61, 106, 153, .75)` |
| `--emea-plan-picker-button-text-color` | `#FFFFFF` |
| `--emea-plan-picker-accent-color` | `#71B8F2` |
| `--emea-plan-picker-stripe-background` | `#E9EBF2` |

Prefer these names when extending their system — it's the brand's actual vocabulary.

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1140px · common grid: 2-col
- nav: 56px fixed · bg #000000

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 658 | 4 | — | 0/0 | 38/13/13/38 |
| 658 | 244 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 902 | 525 | 3 | — | 0/0 | 22/22/55 |
| 1428 | 183 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 1611 | 448 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 2059 | 698 | 2 | — | 0/0 | — |
| 2805 | 804 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 3706 | 656 | — | — | 0/0 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `section.band` @0ms → `div.text-center`×2 @0ms → `div.text-center`×2 @0ms → `li`×3 @864ms → `li.active`×3 @864ms → `div.carousel-item`×6 @864ms
- `img.img-fluid` ×8 — opacity 0→1 · transform scale(0.95) translateX(15px)→scale(1) translateX(0px) — 400ms ease-in-out

Rebuild the timeline, not just the durations — order, delays and staggers above are the choreography.

## Components (measured)
- link: #FFFFFF · no underline

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 576px · 768px · 992px · 1200px
- mobile (390px): hero 39px · body 18px · nav: inline

## How to apply
Paste the Tailwind `@theme` (or CSS variables) as your base, then build each
section to its spec — verify every color, radius, and font against these tokens.
Hover/focus states, shadows and motion timings above are measured from the live page — match them exactly, don't re-guess them.
