## TL;DR
Binadox utilizes a professional "Enterprise Blue" palette dominated by deep navy (#002959) and mid-tone royal blue (#104a8f) against a clean white (#ffffff) canvas. The system breaks from standard SaaS monochrome through a high-voltage coral-red (#ee4638) used exclusively for high-conversion CTAs. Typography is strictly sans-serif, pairing the geometric Maax for headings with the highly legible Inter for body and UI. Layouts are structured with generous vertical spacing (up to 140px) and a consistent 4px/8px border radius system that maintains a modern, software-as-a-service aesthetic.

## Signature DNA
1. **The Coral Trigger** (#ee4638 is reserved for the most critical conversion points—"Get started now" and "Try for Free"—creating a singular focal point against the otherwise blue-heavy interface.)
2. **Blue-on-Blue Layering** (Deep navy text #002959 sits on light blue #ebf5fc or royal blue #1153a2 backgrounds to create information hierarchy without losing brand color density.)
3. **Maax-Bold Display** (The use of Maax-Bold at 90px for hero sections establishes a heavy, authoritative presence that balances the lighter Inter body text.)

## Typography
### Fonts
| Family | Weights observed | Role | Open-source substitute | License |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Maax | 400, 500, 700 | Headings, Display | Montserrat | Commercial |
| Inter | 400, 500, 600 | Body, UI, Navigation | Inter (Google Fonts) | SIL Open Font |

### Scale
| Token | Size | Line height | Letter spacing | Weight | Use | Evidence selector |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `{type.display.mega}` | 90px | 108px | normal | 700 | Hero title | `div.bd-get-started-section__title` |
| `{type.display.lg}` | 40px | 48px | normal | 500 | Section title | `h1.bd-main-section-title` |
| `{type.heading.md}` | 26px | 36.4px | normal | 400 | Feature title | `h3.bd-feature-card__title` |
| `{type.heading.sm}` | 24px | 28.8px | normal | 500 | Solution title | `h3.bd-solution-block__title` |
| `{type.body.lg}` | 18px | 25.2px | normal | 400 | Intro text | `header.bd-header` |
| `{type.body.md}` | 16px | 25.2px | normal | 500 | Nav, Buttons | `li.bd-nav-list-item` |
| `{type.body.sm}` | 15px | 25.2px | normal | 400 | Sub-header | `div.bd-sub-header__elems` |
| `{type.caption}` | 14px | 21px | normal | 400 | Tags | `a.bd-feature-card-tag` |

### Principles
1. **Heading weight contrast:** Display titles use 700 weight (Maax-Bold), while sub-headings drop to 400/500 to ensure clear semantic hierarchy.
2. **Tight display leading:** Large display type (90px) uses a 1.2 line-height ratio, while body text (16px) uses a more breathable 1.57 ratio.
3. **Sans-serif exclusivity:** No serif fonts are permitted in the UI; technical and marketing copy both rely on the Maax/Inter pairing.

## Layout
| Property | Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| Max Container Width | 1200px |
| Section Vertical Padding | 80px - 140px |
| Column Gap | 24px |

## Imagery & decoration
- **Iconography:** Outlined, single-color icons using `{color.brand.royal}` (#104a8f).
- **Photography:** High-quality office/collaborative settings with a natural, slightly cool color grade.
- **Decorative Elements:** Solid blue squares/rectangles used as offset background accents for images.

## Do's
- Use `#ee4638` (Coral) exclusively for the primary conversion path.
- Pair Maax-Bold headings with Inter-Regular body text for maximum readability.
- Apply `{radius.sm}` (4px) to all interactive elements including buttons and form fields.
- Use `{color.surface.tint}` (#ebf5fc) for large background areas to reduce eye strain compared to pure white.
- Maintain a minimum of 80px vertical padding between major content sections.

## Don'ts
- **Wrong:** Using `#ee4638` for secondary buttons or navigation links. **Right:** Use `#104a8f` or transparent outlines. **Reason:** Coral is the high-priority conversion signal.
- **Wrong:** Applying shadows to every card. **Right:** Use 1px `#e0e0e0` borders for standard cards. **Reason:** Shadows are reserved for specific feature emphasis.
- **Wrong:** Mixing serif fonts into the typography scale. **Reason:** The brand identity is strictly geometric sans-serif.
