Mercury — Design System

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

Mercury is banking as a cinematic object: photographic hero worlds — a desk on a mountainside — over a porcelain near-white canvas, with one periwinkle blue (#5266EB) owning every action. Arcadia Display speaks at a soft 480 weight, so headlines feel engraved rather than shouted, while the real drama lives in UI numerals: balances, yields and approval chains rendered as jewel-box product screenshots. Buttons are full 32px pills, cards float on faint lavender fields, and dark sections arrive like night mode for emphasis. It reads as fintech styled by a luxury print magazine — calm, tactile, expensive — with the product itself as the photography.

# Mercury — Design System

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

Mercury is banking as a cinematic object: photographic hero worlds — a desk on a mountainside — over a porcelain near-white canvas, with one periwinkle blue (#5266EB) owning every action. Arcadia Display speaks at a soft 480 weight, so headlines feel engraved rather than shouted, while the real drama lives in UI numerals: balances, yields and approval chains rendered as jewel-box product screenshots. Buttons are full 32px pills, cards float on faint lavender fields, and dark sections arrive like night mode for emphasis. It reads as fintech styled by a luxury print magazine — calm, tactile, expensive — with the product itself as the photography.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#171721` |
| surface | `#23232D` |
| border | `#36363F` |
| text | `#ECECEE` |
| text_muted | `#9B9BA0` |
| primary | `#323649` |
| accent | `#5266EB` |
| link | `#353644` |
| secondary | `#5266EB` |
| button_bg | `#5266EB` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#5266EB` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `primary` `#323649`, `link` `#353644` are visually the same color (Δ8) — treat as one role.
- `accent`, `secondary`, `button_bg` are all `#5266EB` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#5266EB` — 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.
- **Page coverage** (full-page screenshot pixels): `#171721` 93.6% · `#EDEDF3` 3% · `#494A59` 2.4% · `#AAADC8` 1%

## Typography

- Heading: **Arcadia Display** _(free fallback: Hanken Grotesk)_
- Body: **Arcadia** _(free fallback: Hanken Grotesk)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 65px / 480 · lh 72px |
| h2 | 49px / 480 · lh 54px |
| h3 | 42px / 480 · lh 48px · tracking 0.42px |
| body | 16px / 400 · lh 22px |
| small | 12px / 480 · lh 17px · tracking 0.24px |

- Weight ladder: 360 · 400 · 420 · 480 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.

## Spacing
- base unit: 8px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 2px, 4px, 8px, 12px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 25px, 32px, 40px — snap all gaps/padding to these

## Radius
- base: 4px
- button: 32px
- card: 4px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#5266EB` / `#FFFFFF` | none | 32px | 0px 20px 0px 20px | 420 16px | none |
| secondary | `#323649` / `#EDEDF3` | none | 40px | — | — | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: background `#4354C8`
- primary focus: background `#4354C8` · outline `2px solid rgb(156, 180, 232)`
- transition: `color 0.3s cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1)`

## Motion
- durations: 150ms (dominant) · 300ms · 500ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.4, 0, 0.2, 1)` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0, 0, 0.2, 1)`
- animated properties: color, background-color, border-color, outline-color

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

## 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.
