## Overview

Creative branding agency for startups ✪ Outcrowd ✪ Creative branding, web design & development agency: Outcrowd is a ➠ digital creative agency for startups that designs and develops great digital products ☑ We are creating branding, websites and mobile applications to deliver a great experience ✓

Gently rounded controls, flat surfaces separated by hairlines, large display type at 64px / 500, a single red accent on neutrals. The site ships in dark mode by default (dark surfaces, light type). Measured from 3287 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 | `#080808` | Page background |
| surface | `#101010` | Cards, panels, raised or recessed surfaces |
| surface-2 | `#262626` | Secondary surface |
| surface-3 | `#191919` | Secondary surface |
| foreground | `#ffffff` | Primary text |
| muted-foreground | `#080808` | Secondary text, captions |
| primary | `#fe4a23` | Accent: primary buttons, links, focus |
| on-primary | `#111111` | Text on the accent |
| secondary | `#774dff` | Secondary accent (violet) |
| border | `#ffffff` | Hairlines, dividers, input borders |

Full painted palette by area (largest first): `#080808`, `#ffffff`, `#101010`, `#262626`, `#191919`, `#fe4a23`, `#404040`, `#774dff`.

Gradients in use: `radial-gradient(circle, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.4), rgb(8, 8, 8) 58%)`; `radial-gradient(circle, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.35), rgb(8, 8, 8) 62%)`; `linear-gradient(110deg, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0), rgb(8, 8, 8) 50%, rgb(8, 8, 8))`.

The accent `#fe4a23` 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 | 1368px | 418px | 14.4px | 63.9px, 3 lines, center | 0px, 5 links, 1 CTA | media below text | 8→1 col; 2→1 col; 2→1 col | content-width |
| laptop 1024px | 973px | 297px | 10.24px | 45.5px, 3 lines, center | 0px, 5 links, 1 CTA | media below text | 8→1 col; 2→1 col; 2→1 col | content-width |
| tablet 768px | 730px | 223px | 7.68px | 34.1px, 3 lines, center | 0px, 5 links, 1 CTA | media below text | 8→1 col; 2→1 col; 2→1 col | content-width |
| phone 390px | 350px | 361px | 16px | 42px, 2 lines, center | 0px, 6 links, 1 CTA | media below text | 2→1 col; 2→1 col; 2→1 col | content-width |

- H1 goes 63.9px → 42px (66%), 3 → 2 lines.
- Nav never collapses to a hamburger (6 links still visible at 390px).
- Body text 14.4px → 16px.
- Phone side gutter 361px.
- Horizontal overflow at 390px (the source has a responsive bug; do not copy it).
- Section top padding 162px → 132px.

## Interaction & Motion

142 elements carry transitions; typical 0.5s with ease, mostly on color, transform, opacity. 2 running keyframe animations (zoomIn 0.3s 1; zsiqcntanim 1s 1).

- Hover on button-primary ("Contact"): no visible change; cursor pointer.
- Hover on nav-link ("Cases"): no visible change; cursor pointer.
- Focus on button-primary: no visible focus style measured (may rely on :focus-visible with keyboard only).
- Tooltip triggers exist (2 × title) but none opened on hover in the first viewport; title attributes fall back to the browser's native tooltip.
- 11 aria-haspopup triggers exist; none opened on hover (click-to-open menus).
- 124 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 4px multiples for every padding, margin and gap; the site does not use odd values.
- Do reserve `#fe4a23` for actions and focus; never paint large areas with it.
- Do keep body text at 14.4px in Itcavantgardestd Md.
- Do match corner radii per element class (buttons 8px, cards 27px); do not pick one radius for everything.
- Don't add drop shadows; this design is flat.
- 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.
