## Overview

A curated directory of beautiful and functional websites.

*A refined museum of digital craft, stripping away noise to focus on excellence.*

## Colors

High-contrast monochrome canvas that defers all chromatic expression to the curated content thumbnails.

- **Background (`#000000`)** — uses `bg` token
- **Primary text (`#FFFFFF`)** — uses `ink` token
- **Secondary text (`#B3B3B3`)** — uses `ink-soft` token
- **Muted (`#939393`)** — uses `muted` token
- **Borders (`rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1)`)** — uses `line` token

## Typography

- **Display:** humanist-sans
- **Body:** humanist-sans

- Maintain tight negative tracking on headlines to match the refined, dense aesthetic.
- Use consistent 400 weight for body text to preserve the calm, uniform visual rhythm.

## Layout

Asymmetric navigation layout with a clean 3-column portfolio grid below the hero.

*Rhythm:* Structured layout with generous breathing room between the hero section and the content grid.

## Elevation & Depth

- 0px 0px 20px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2)
- Borders: Thin, subtle 1px borders in white at 10% opacity for delicate structural separation.

## Shapes

- `sm`: 4px
- `md`: 5px
- `lg`: 6px
- `pill`: 25px

## Components

- **button:** Pill-shaped tags for filtering categories; subtle, high-contrast, and interactive.
- **card:** Image-heavy gallery cards with minimal text descriptions and slight rounded corners.
- **chip:** Horizontal scrolling category filters styled as pills.
- **input:** Dark-themed inline input fields with subtle borders and integrated arrow buttons.
- **hero:** A massive, centered text statement paired with a simple email subscription form.

## Do's and Don'ts

**Don't:**
- Don't use bright, saturated background colors — the screenshot shows a strict black-and-white foundation.
- Don't use heavy drop shadows or 3D effects — the screenshot uses subtle, soft glows or none.
- Don't use decorative or italicized serif fonts for UI text — the screenshot shows clean humanist sans-serifs.
- Don't clutter the UI with excessive borders — the screenshot relies on whitespace and thin, low-opacity lines.
- Don't use center-aligned body text at scale — the screenshot keeps text left-aligned or carefully centered only for headlines.
- Don't use thick, rounded buttons — the screenshot shows thin pill-shaped tags or minimalist input fields.

## System Prompt (paste into AI agent)

```
This is a high-end, curated design directory named Minimal Gallery, designed to let showcased work shine against a stark, high-contrast canvas. The primary palette is strictly monochromatic: a deep black (#000000) background with crisp white (#FFFFFF) and light gray (#B3B3B3) typography. The typography relies heavily on a clean humanist-sans (Inter), utilizing tight negative tracking and consistent 400 weights to maintain a calm, refined rhythm. Critical design constraints include avoiding any vibrant UI background colors, maintaining subtle UI borders at 10% white opacity, and using generous whitespace to frame the 3-column content grid. The voice is appreciative and restrained, focusing entirely on the beauty and functionality of the curated web projects.
