Axiom — Design System

dark · modern · medium · tailwind · confidence 92% · deep decode

Axiom does observability as a terminal session on pure black: Berkeley Mono headlines at a restrained 32px, ASCII textures and 2.5px-radius buttons that feel machined rather than drawn, and 14px Inter for everything that has to read fast. Color arrives only as data — chart traces and status greens on the void. It is log-file minimalism turned brand: the site itself looks like the tool tailing your events.

Tokens

Axiom's decoded design system: background #000000, text #6B7280, accent #DA5C2C, link #569CD6, primary #DA5C2C; type scale h1 32px / h2 24px / body 14px; 8px spacing base; 4px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #DA5C2C — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Axiom — Design System

> dark, modern, medium, tailwind — deep decode (measured live)

Axiom does observability as a terminal session on pure black: Berkeley Mono headlines at a restrained 32px, ASCII textures and 2.5px-radius buttons that feel machined rather than drawn, and 14px Inter for everything that has to read fast. Color arrives only as data — chart traces and status greens on the void. It is log-file minimalism turned brand: the site itself looks like the tool tailing your events.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#000000` |
| surface | `#060607` |
| border | `#101113` |
| text | `#6B7280` |
| text_muted | `#42464F` |
| primary | `#DA5C2C` |
| accent | `#DA5C2C` |
| link | `#569CD6` |
| secondary | `#6B7280` |
| button_bg | `#DA5C2C` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#DA5C2C` — 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`, `button_bg` are all `#DA5C2C` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#DA5C2C` — THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed.
- **link** `#569CD6` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#6B7280` — optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#000000` 77.8% · `#161616` 18.4% · `#6A6D77` 3.8%

## Typography

- Heading: **Berkeley Mono** _(free fallback: JetBrains Mono)_
- Body: **Inter**
- Mono: **BerkeleyMono** _(measured)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 32px / 400 · lh 40px |
| h2 | 24px / 400 · lh 32px |
| h3 | 20px / 400 · lh 28px |
| body | 14px / 400 · lh 20px |
| small | 12px / 400 · lh 16px |

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

> **Fonts —** Berkeley Mono may be proprietary — safe free fallback: JetBrains Mono (Google Fonts). Inter — free, on Google.

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 2px, 4px, 6px, 8px, 16px, 24px, 32px, 40px, 48px, 64px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 96px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 4px
- button: 2px
- card: 4px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 2px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#EEEEEE` / `#111111` | none | 2.5px | 0px 0px 0px 0px | 400 14px | rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) 0px 1px 2px 0px |
| secondary | `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)` / `#B4B4B4` | 1px solid rgb(96, 96, 96) | 4px | 0px 16px 0px 16px | 400 14px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary focus: outline `1px auto rgb(16, 16, 16)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(110, 110, 110)` · color `#EEEEEE`

## Shadows (elevation)
- subtle: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) 0px 1px 2px 0px`
- card: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 20px 25px -5px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) 0px 8px 10px -6px`
- button: `rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) 0px 0px 0px 0px, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05) 0px 1px 2px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 200ms (dominant) · 150ms · 300ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 1, 1)`
- animated properties: color, background-color, border-color, text-decoration-color

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

_…and 87 more measured on the page._

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1240px
- nav: 74px sticky

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 732 | 745 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 2135 | 830 | — | — | 96/96 | — |
| 2965 | 851 | — | — | 96/96 | — |
| 3815 | 1104 | — | — | 96/96 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `div.inline-block` @0ms → `div.dark` @2217ms

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

## Components (measured)
- link: #EEEEEE · underline
- disabled: bg rgba(0, 0, 0, 0) · text #606060

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 640px · 768px · 1024px · 1240px · 1280px · 1536px
- mobile (390px): hero 30px · 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.
