Marketify Design System
Marketify is a clean, black-on-white agency and shop template. It feels like a product studio's lookbook: big Inter Tight headlines in weight 600, plenty of white space, 2px black outlines instead of filled shapes, and soft grey 3D renders and device mockups that carry almost all the imagery. There is no brand colour; the only saturated touches come from inside the photos (a chartreuse disc, a green phone screen).
Four signatures make it recognisable:
- Fading grid lines. An 18-column grid (16px gap) of hairline vertical lines sits behind the page. Each line is a linear-gradient(#FFFFFF 10%, #000000 50%, #FFFFFF 90%) at low opacity, so the lines fade out at the top and bottom of each band. They are visible in every screenshot.
- The rotating MENU badge. Top right, a circle of the word MENU repeated four times in small uppercase, wrapped around a thin +. It sits at a different angle at each scroll position.
- Outline everything. Buttons, tags, the testimonial card, the footer tags and the counter circles all use a 2px solid black (#000000) border with no fill (white on the video band). Filled black only appears on the form submit.
- Split hero. A 3D object on the left half and a two-line display-hero headline, a 28px bold lead and an outlined Contact us ↗ button on the right half, then a thin vertical arrow pointing down.
Marketify is a light-only design.

Do’s and don’ts
- Keep the page black and white: canvas #FFFFFF, ink #000000, and body text in full black.
- Use 2px solid #000000 outlines for buttons (6px radius), tags (30px) and cards (12px).
- Set every heading and lead in Inter Tight 600 with 0px tracking, and body paragraphs in 500.
- Put the faint 18-column vertical grid behind each band, fading to white at the top and bottom.
- Use soft grey 3D renders and mockups with a 15px radius; let them carry any colour.
- Reveal headlines line by line with the skew-and-rise (1100ms outQuint).
- Add an accent colour or use the unused pastel variables as section fills.
- Fill the hero call to action. The filled black button-primary is only for submit and checkout.
- Add drop shadows or blur; the template has none.
- Use ink-subtle (#2C2C2C at 50%) for anything but small meta like a role after a name; it is too light for paragraphs.
- Track headlines tighter or use uppercase outside the footer tags and the MENU ring.
- Use borders thinner or thicker than 2px on components.
