Decoded design system

Commercial Type's decoded design system: background #FFFFFF, text #000000, accent #38A4FA, link #38A4FA, primary #E2F2FF; type scale h1 22.08px / h2 15.456px / body 22.08px; 12px spacing base; 0px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #323232 — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Color roles

Role	Value
bg	`#FFFFFF`
surface	`#EFEFEF`
border	`#D8D8D8`
text	`#000000`
text_muted	`#606060`
primary	`#E2F2FF`
accent	`#38A4FA`
link	`#38A4FA`
secondary	`#9D968E`
button_bg	`#323232`
button_text	`#FFFFFF`

Using these colors

Action color #323232 — the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills.
accent, link are all #38A4FA — one role, not several (the action color).
accent #38A4FA — accent for emphasis — keep it rare on the page.
primary #E2F2FF — a neutral UI color (chips, tags, icon fills, chrome), not the action color (action = #323232).
secondary #9D968E — 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.
