Stripe — Design System

light · professional · medium · custom · confidence 92%

Stripe is light-mode confidence with a single electric accent. The canvas is pure white, the ink a deep navy-black (#0A0A0B), and one blurple (#533AFD) does every interactive job — links, buttons, focus. Söhne carries the entire site at a startling weight-300 lightness: a 48px hairline H1, 32px ledes, 16px body — big type kept airy instead of loud. Corners are tight 4px rectangles (no pills), shadows are effectively absent, and color arrives only through product mockups and the famous gradient moments; the chrome around them stays monochrome. Density is editorial: generous air, long scroll, every section a self-contained argument. It reads as infrastructure that dresses well — precise, calm, quietly expensive.

# Stripe — Design System

> light, professional, medium, custom

Stripe is light-mode confidence with a single electric accent. The canvas is pure white, the ink a deep navy-black (#0A0A0B), and one blurple (#533AFD) does every interactive job — links, buttons, focus. Söhne carries the entire site at a startling weight-300 lightness: a 48px hairline H1, 32px ledes, 16px body — big type kept airy instead of loud. Corners are tight 4px rectangles (no pills), shadows are effectively absent, and color arrives only through product mockups and the famous gradient moments; the chrome around them stays monochrome. Density is editorial: generous air, long scroll, every section a self-contained argument. It reads as infrastructure that dresses well — precise, calm, quietly expensive.

## Colors

| Role | Value |
|------|-------|
| bg | `#FFFFFF` |
| surface | `#F0F0F0` |
| border | `#DADADA` |
| text | `#0A0A0B` |
| text_muted | `#676767` |
| primary | `#061B31` |
| accent | `#533AFD` |
| link | `#533AFD` |
| secondary | `#FFE0D1` |
| button_bg | `#533AFD` |
| button_text | `#FFFFFF` |

**Using these colors**

- **Action color** `#533AFD` — 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`, `button_bg` are all `#533AFD` — one role, not several (your action color).
- **accent** `#533AFD` — 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** `#061B31` — a brand color — but the call-to-action uses #533AFD, not this.
- **secondary** `#FFE0D1` — 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.

## Typography

- Heading: **Söhne** _(free fallback: Inter)_
