# Design System: Webflow

## 1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

Webflow's website is a visually rich, tool-forward platform that communicates "design without code" through clean white surfaces, the signature Webflow Blue (`#146ef5`), and a rich secondary color palette (purple, pink, green, orange, yellow, red). The custom WF Visual Sans Variable font creates a confident, precise typographic system with weight 600 for display and 500 for body.

**Key Characteristics:**
- White canvas with near-black (`#080808`) text
- Webflow Blue (`#146ef5`) as primary brand + interactive color
- WF Visual Sans Variable — custom variable font with weight 500–600
- Rich secondary palette: purple `#7a3dff`, pink `#ed52cb`, green `#00d722`, orange `#ff6b00`, yellow `#ffae13`, red `#ee1d36`
- Conservative 4px–8px border-radius — sharp, not rounded
- Multi-layer shadow stacks (5-layer cascading shadows)
- Uppercase labels: 10px–15px, weight 500–600, wide letter-spacing (0.6px–1.5px)
- translate(6px) hover animation on buttons
