## Overview

Monzo | Open a Free Account: Your salary sorted into Pots. Your spare change turned into savings. Your money, doing what it should with Monzo.

Soft, well-rounded controls, one soft shadow for depth, confident display type at 49px / 800, a single blue accent on neutrals. The site ships in light mode by default. Measured from 2836 rendered elements at 1440px wide on 2026-09-28.

Reference screenshots live beside this file; look at them before writing any layout, they carry the composition, density and image treatment that tokens cannot:

- `screenshots/desktop-1440-fold.png`: Desktop 1440, above the fold
- `screenshots/desktop-1440-full.jpg`: Desktop 1440, full page
- `screenshots/laptop-1024-fold.png`: Laptop 1024, above the fold
- `screenshots/tablet-768-fold.png`: Tablet 768, above the fold
- `screenshots/phone-390-fold.png`: Phone 390, above the fold
- `screenshots/phone-390-full.jpg`: Phone 390, full page

## Colors

| Token | Value | Use |
| --- | --- | --- |
| background | `#ffffff` | Page background |
| surface | `#efefef` | Cards, panels, raised or recessed surfaces |
| foreground | `#6b747b` | Primary text |
| muted-foreground | `#091723` | Secondary text, captions |
| primary | `#091723` | Accent: primary buttons, links, focus |
| on-primary | `#ffffff` | Text on the accent |
| secondary | `#0000ee` | Secondary accent (blue) |
| border | `#091723` | Hairlines, dividers, input borders |

Full painted palette by area (largest first): `#ffffff`, `#112231`, `#ff4f40`, `#091723`, `#efefef`, `#3b4c54`, `#75817e`.

The accent `#091723` is used sparingly: primary buttons, links and focus rings. Everything else stays neutral.

## Responsive Behavior

| Viewport | Content width | Gutter | Body | H1 | Header | Hero | Grids | Buttons |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| desktop 1440px | 395px | 100px | 16px | 48.8px, 2 lines, start | 87px, 3 links, 1 CTA | text only | 2→1 col; 2→2 col; 4→1 col | content-width |
| laptop 1024px | 720px | 88px | 16px | 48.4px, 3 lines, start | 87px, 3 links, 1 CTA | text only | 2→1 col; 2→2 col; 4→1 col | content-width |
| tablet 768px | 704px | 64px | 16px | 45.3px, 2 lines, start | 72px, hamburger (Toggle Personal navigation menu), 1 CTA | text only | 2→1 col; 3→3 col; 6→6 col | 10 full-width |
| phone 390px | 358px | 40px | 16px | 40.7px, 4 lines, start | 65px, hamburger (Toggle Personal navigation menu), 1 CTA | text only | 2→1 col; 3→3 col; 6→6 col | 12 full-width |

- H1 goes 48.8px → 40.7px (83%), 2 → 4 lines.
- Nav collapses to a hamburger by 390px (first seen at 768px); header 87px → 65px.
- Card grids: 1 columns → 1 column on phones (gap normal → normal).
- Body text stays 16px at every width.
- Phone side gutter 40px.
- 12 buttons stretch full-width on phones.
- Section top padding 64px → 32px.

## Interaction & Motion

226 elements carry transitions; typical 0.3s with cubic-bezier(0.22, 0, 0.12, 1), mostly on background-color, opacity, transform. 1 running keyframe animations (RevealInView_reveal__AqI33 1s 1).

- Hover on button-primary ("Sign up"): background #091723 → #2c3a43, border #091723 → #2c3a43; cursor pointer; transition background-color, color | 0.3s, 0.3s | ease-in-out, ease-in-out | delay 0.1s, 0.1s.
- Hover on button-secondary ("Open a free Monzo account"): background #ffffff → #ffffffcc, border #ffffff → #ffffffcc; cursor pointer; transition background-color | 0.2s | ease.
- Hover on nav-link ("Business"): text #09172399 → #091723, border #09172399 → #091723, icon/inner colour → #091723; cursor pointer.
- Focus on button-primary: outline 1px solid rgb(33, 143, 183), offset 2px.
- No tooltip could be triggered from the first viewport, but the stylesheet defines tooltip rules (.Tooltip_Tooltip__6n9nm): position: relative.
- Hover/click menus: below the trigger, 24px gap, shifted right; #ffffff, radius 0px, padding 48px 48px, shadow none; 6 items, 107px tall, 16px, padding 16px 16px, 2 columns; appears after a delay; stays open after the pointer leaves (click-away or hover-intent grace).
- 18 sizable elements sit at opacity 0 before scrolling: scroll-reveal animations are in use (reveal on enter, fade + rise is the usual recipe).

Full detail (every overlay, table, form, scroll and text rule measured) is in `BEHAVIOR.md`; raw evidence in `evidence.json`.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do use 8px multiples for every padding, margin and gap; the site does not use odd values.
- Do reserve `#091723` for actions and focus; never paint large areas with it.
- Do keep body text at 16px in MonzoSansText and headings in MonzoSansDisplay.
- Do match corner radii per element class (buttons 500px, cards 0px); do not pick one radius for everything.
- Do use the measured shadows above; do not invent heavier ones.
- Don't substitute a different accent hue or introduce gradients that are not listed above.
- Don't rebuild from the tokens alone; open the screenshots for composition, density and image treatment.
- Note: The primary action colour is the ink colour (monochrome palette); chromatic colours appear only as small accents.
