Decoded design system

Musicstars's decoded design system: background #080A0E, text #F4F5F7, link #9FA8B5, primary #9FA8B5; type scale h1 42px / h2 38px / body 14px; 8px spacing base; 8px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #9FA8B5 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Using these colors

• Action color #9FA8B5 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
• primary, link are all #9FA8B5 — one role, not several (the action color).

# Musicstars — Design System

> dark — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#080A0E` |
| surface | `#16181B` |
| border | `#2B2D30` |
| text | `#F4F5F7` |
| text_muted | `#9A9B9E` |
| primary | `#9FA8B5` |
| link | `#9FA8B5` |
| button_bg | `color(srgb 0.952941 0.709804 0.105882 / 0.16)` |
| button_text | `#FFD154` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#9FA8B5` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary`, `link` are all `#9FA8B5` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#11151D` 56.6% · `#473E45` 12.3% · `#948A8A` 11.2% · `#04070C` 10.6%

## Typography

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

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 42px / 700 |
| h2 | 38px / 700 · tracking -0.95px |
| h3 | 28px / 700 |
| body | 14px / 700 · lh 18px |
| small | 13px / 400 · lh 15px |
| eyebrow | 11px / 400 · tracking 1.32px |

- Weight ladder: 400 · 700 · 800 · 900 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

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

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 4px, 6px, 7px, 8px, 9px, 10px, 11px, 12px, 13px, 14px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 40px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 8px
- button: 8px
- card: 50px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `color(srgb 0.952941 0.709804 0.105882 / 0.16)` / `#FFD154` | 1px solid color(srgb 0.952941 0.709804 0.105882 / 0.55) | 8px | 9px 10px 9px 10px | 400 13px | none |
| secondary | `rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.024)` / `#E8EBF0` | 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.09) | 8px | 9px 10px 9px 10px | 400 16px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary focus: outline `2px solid rgb(243, 181, 27)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid color(srgb 0.906036 0.703752 0.19011 / 0.631176)` · background `rgba(246, 182, 43, 0.08)` · transform `matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, -1)`

## Shadows (elevation)
- card: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.35) 0px 8px 24px 0px`
- overlay: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.24) 0px -10px 38px 0px, color(srgb 0.854902 0.643137 0.219608 / 0.22) 0px 2px 0px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 160ms (dominant) · 150ms · 180ms
- easings: `ease` (dominant)
- animated properties: transform, border-color, background, width

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)

_…and 1 more measured on the page._

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1440px · common grid: 4-col
- nav: 202px

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 917 | 4 | 12 | 0/40 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `svg.lucide` @0ms → `a.station-card-visual` @286ms
- `a.station-card-visual` — opacity 0→0.76 · transform translate3d(-8px, 150px, 0px) scale(0.62)→translate3d(8px, -8px, 0px) scale(0.86) — 9000ms cubic-bezier(0.22, 0.68, 0.32, 1) · loops

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

## Components (measured)
- card ×4: pad 0px 0px 0px 0px · r 12px · border 1px solid rgba(150, 169, 194, 0.18) · bg rgba(13, 18, 26, 0.96)
  - hover: border `1px solid color(srgb 0.854902 0.643137 0.219608 / 0.45)` · font-weight `400` · letter-spacing `normal` · transform `matrix(1, 0, 0, 1, 0, -2)`

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 761px · 1050px
- mobile (390px): hero 27px · body 16px · nav: hamburger

## 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.
