# Design Intent

## Aesthetic Direction

**Style:** Refined minimalism with editorial typography
**Tone:** Professional but warm — not corporate sterile
**Differentiator:** Generous whitespace + oversized serif headings

## Anti-Patterns (project-specific)

- No system/default fonts in user-facing UI
- No purple-gradient-on-white hero sections
- No icon-only buttons without labels

## Platform Notes

- **Web:** Tailwind + shadcn/ui base, custom tokens override defaults
- **Mobile:** iOS-first, Material adaptation for Android

## Strictness Override

level: standard
