Orxin Design System
Orxin is a dark, upbeat digital-studio site. It sits on a deep navy-black with charcoal cards, white bold DM Sans headlines and small green eyebrows, and it scatters flat geometric doodles (a coral arc, a sky-blue half-disc, concentric rings, an outlined cross) around the edges like confetti. Colour is bright and friendly but used in small pieces against the dark.
Four signatures make it recognisable:
- Green eyebrow, white headline, soft lead. Nearly every section opens with a centred 18px weight-700 green line (Core services, Our projects, What they think), a 50px weight-700 white title, then a 26px weight-400 lead at 80% white.
- A coloured word in the hero. The 80px headline We're a talented digital studio. swaps one word that is set in coral #FF715B (or sky blue #68D4FF), so the hero carries one spot of warm colour.
- Square uppercase buttons. Buttons are 60px tall, 4px radius, 13px bold uppercase with 1px tracking: green ENQUIRE NOW, charcoal VIEW ON WEBFLOW. Hover turns the green button coral.
- Floating geometric shapes. Flat outline and solid shapes in coral, sky blue, green, gold and violet sit around the hero and section edges, plus large dark half-circles (360px radii) behind images.
Orxin is a dark-only design with a small Webflow Ecommerce cart in the nav.

Do’s and don’ts
- Use canvas #12141D for the page and #20222E for cards and alternate bands.
- Open sections with a green #3CCF91 18px bold eyebrow, a 50px bold white title and a 26px regular lead at 80% white.
- Keep buttons square-cornered: 4px radius, 60px tall, 13px bold uppercase with 1px tracking.
- Keep button labels 13px bold uppercase: white on #3CCF91 is only about 2:1 and on the #FF715B hover about 2.7:1. These are the template's real colours.
- Add one coral #FF715B or sky-blue #68D4FF word or icon per view for warmth.
- Scatter 2–4 small flat doodles (rings, arcs, a cross, a half-disc) at section edges, partly off-screen.
- Use pure black, or grey hex values for text; use white at 80 / 70 / 60 / 50%.
- Round buttons into pills; pills are only for the feature list.
- Add glass, blur or heavy shadows; the only shadow is 0 16px 25px at 10%.
- Use Butler or any serif; DM Sans carries everything, with Caveat only for one handwritten note.
- Mix more than two accent colours in one component (except the three-colour blog tags and service icons).
- Put ink-faint (50%) on text under 16px.
- Set tag text below 15px bold: white on the pink, red and blue tag fills is under 3:1.

CLAUDE.md: “Follow DESIGN.md for all UI.” - Ask for any page or component; Claude reads the file first
- Attach
DESIGN.mdto the chat (or paste it in) - Ask: “Build a landing page in this design system.”
