Notion Calendar — Design System
Notion Calendar (née Cron) speaks the house dialect: Notion's cut of Inter at 64px/700 in soft black ('It's time.'), 16px body, and 8px-radius quiet buttons. Calendar UI in Notion's warm greys does all the showing — the acquisition absorbed the product into a design system so consistent the page needs almost no other brand.
This is a static, crawlable rendering for search & AI engines. The interactive version — filters, live decode console, copy & export — is at https://mozaika.design/ds/notion-calendar.
Tokens
Notion Calendar's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #0D0D0D, accent #191918, link #2383E2, primary #FFF5E0; type scale h1 64px / h2 42px / body 16px; 4px spacing base; 6px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #191918 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Notion Calendar — Design System
> light, modern, medium, custom — deep decode (measured live)
Notion Calendar (née Cron) speaks the house dialect: Notion's cut of Inter at 64px/700 in soft black ('It's time.'), 16px body, and 8px-radius quiet buttons. Calendar UI in Notion's warm greys does all the showing — the acquisition absorbed the product into a design system so consistent the page needs almost no other brand.
## Colors
| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F0F0F0` |
| border | `#DADADA` |
| text | `#0D0D0D` |
| text_muted | `#686868` |
| primary | `#FFF5E0` |
| accent | `#191918` |
| link | `#2383E2` |
| secondary | `#0075DE` |
| button_bg | `#191918` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |
**Using these colors**
- **Action color** `#191918` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `accent`, `button_bg` are all `#191918` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#191918` — 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.
- **primary** `#FFF5E0` — a neutral UI color (chips, tags, icon fills, chrome), not the action color (action = #191918).
- **link** `#2383E2` — inline text links and link-styled controls.
- **secondary** `#0075DE` — 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): `#FFFFFF` 88.7% · `#AAB3BB` 3.1% · `#0E0D0D` 3% · `#ECDBBC` 2.8%
## Typography

- Weight ladder: 400 · 500 · 550 · 650 · 700 — use these exact measured weights, not the 400/600 defaults.
> **Fonts —** Notion Inter may be proprietary — safe free fallback: Newsreader (Google Fonts).
## Spacing
- base unit: 4px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 3px, 4px, 5px, 6px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 14px, 15px, 16px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 64px top/bottom padding per section (measured)
## Radius
- base: 6px
- button: 8px
- card: 8px
- pill: 9999px
- sharp: 3px
## Buttons
| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#0075DE` / `#FFFFFF` | 1px solid rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) | 8px | 4px 14px 4px 14px | 500 16px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**
- primary hover: background `#005BAB`
- primary focus: background `#005BAB` · outline `2px solid rgb(0, 117, 222)`
- secondary hover: background `#F2F9FF`
## Shadows (elevation)
- overlay: `rgba(66, 35, 3, 0.03) 0px 8px 12px 0px, rgba(66, 35, 3, 0.03) 0px 2px 6px 0px`
## Motion
- durations: 200ms (dominant) · 150ms · 600ms
- easings: `cubic-bezier(0.42, 0, 1, 1)` (dominant) · `ease-in-out`
- animated properties: background-color, color, text-decoration-color, -webkit-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.

## 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.
