Tokens

Postman's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #212121, accent #140B1E, link #140B1E, primary #0265D2; type scale h1 55px / h2 36px / body 12px; 10px spacing base; 6px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #E0531F — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

# Postman — Design System

> light, professional, medium, custom — deep decode (measured live)

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F1F1F1` |
| border | `#DDDDDD` |
| text | `#212121` |
| text_muted | `#757575` |
| primary | `#0265D2` |
| accent | `#140B1E` |
| link | `#140B1E` |
| secondary | `#FF6C37` |
| button_bg | `#E0531F` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#E0531F` — the single interactive color; it appears only on things you click or must notice (buttons, key highlights), never on large fills or backgrounds.
- `accent`, `link` are all `#140B1E` — one role, not several.
- **accent** `#140B1E` — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
- **primary** `#0265D2` — a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #E0531F, not this.
- **secondary** `#FF6C37` — 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): `#140B1E` 41% · `#3B1761` 22.3% · `#F8F6F9` 14.8% · `#200E37` 13.2%

## Typography

- Heading: **Segoe UI** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Body: **Segoe UI** _(free fallback: Newsreader)_
- Mono: **ibmPlexMono** _(measured)_

| Role | Size / weight · line-height · tracking |
|------|------------------------------------------|
| hero | 55px / 600 · lh 50px · tracking 0.6px |
| h2 | 36px / 600 · lh 42px · tracking 0.48px |
| h3 | 24px / 600 · lh 39px · tracking -0.16px |
| body | 16px / 400 · lh 26px · tracking -0.16px |
| small | 14px / 600 · lh 23px · tracking -0.16px |

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

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

## Spacing
- base unit: 10px (inferred from the measured scale)
- measured scale: 4px, 5px, 8px, 10px, 12px, 15px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 40px — snap all gaps/padding to these
- section rhythm: 60px top/bottom padding per section (measured)

## Radius
- base: 6px
- button: 5px
- card: 5px
- pill: 9999px

## Buttons

| Button | Fill / text | Border | Radius | Padding | Font | Shadow |
|--------|-------------|--------|--------|---------|------|--------|
| primary | `#E0531F` / `#FFFFFF` | none | 5px | 4px 12px 4px 12px | 600 14px / -0.16px | none |
| secondary | `rgba(138, 138, 138, 0.1)` / `#212121` | 1px solid rgb(207, 207, 207) | 5px | 4px 12px 4px 12px | 600 14px / -0.16px | none |

**States (measured, not guessed)**

- primary hover: background `#FF6C37`
- primary focus: outline `2px solid rgb(224, 83, 31)`
- secondary hover: border `1px solid rgb(33, 33, 33)` · background `#212121` · color `#FFFFFF`

## Shadows (elevation)
- overlay: `rgb(179, 135, 245) 0px 4px 24px 0px`

## Motion
- durations: 1100ms (dominant) · 1400ms · 1700ms
- easings: `ease-in-out` (dominant) · `cubic-bezier(0.4, 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.

_…and 108 more measured on the page._

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

## Layout (measured)
- container max 1180px · common grid: 12-col
- nav: 54px sticky · border-bottom 1px solid rgb(230, 230, 230) · bg #FFFFFF

| Section (y) | Height | Cols | Gap | Pad y | Split |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 66 | 349 | 4 | — | 0/0 | — |
| 1328 | 160 | — | — | 30/30 | — |
| 1488 | 477 | — | — | 0/0 | — |
| 1964 | 1574 | 12 | — | 60/60 | — |
| 3539 | 1522 | 12 | — | 60/60 | — |

## Motion choreography (measured)
Load order: `span.hero-video-pixel`×300 @0ms
- `span.hero-video-pixel` ×24 — opacity 0.01→0.01 — 1300ms ease-in-out (delay -1200ms) · loops
- scroll reveal: 1 elements rest at opacity 0, animate in over 1300ms (0 revealed during the drive).
- overlay dropdown (auto-opened): panel #FFFFFF · r 10px · border 1px solid rgb(230, 230, 230) · shadow 

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

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

## Responsive (measured)
- breakpoints: 480px · 576px · 600px · 640px · 768px · 992px
- mobile (390px): hero 36px · body 16px · 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.
