# Design System Inspiration of Kraken

## 1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

Kraken's website is a clean, trustworthy crypto exchange that uses purple as its
commanding brand color. The design operates on white backgrounds with Kraken
Purple (`#7132f5`, `#5741d8`, `#5b1ecf`) creating a distinctive, professional
crypto identity. The proprietary Kraken-Brand font handles display headings with
bold (700) weight and negative tracking, while Kraken-Product (with IBM Plex
Sans fallback) serves as the UI workhorse.

**Key Characteristics:**

- Kraken Purple (`#7132f5`) as primary brand with darker variants (`#5741d8`,
  `#5b1ecf`)
- Kraken-Brand (display) + Kraken-Product (UI) dual font system
- Near-black (`#101114`) text with cool blue-gray neutral scale
- 12px radius buttons (rounded but not pill)
- Subtle shadows (`rgba(0,0,0,0.03) 0px 4px 24px`) — whisper-level
- Green accent (`#149e61`) for positive/success states

## 2. Color Palette & Roles

### Primary

- **Kraken Purple** (`#7132f5`): Primary CTA, brand accent, links
- **Purple Dark** (`#5741d8`): Button borders, outlined variants
- **Purple Deep** (`#5b1ecf`): Deepest purple
- **Purple Subtle** (`rgba(133,91,251,0.16)`): Purple at 16% — subtle button
  backgrounds
- **Near Black** (`#101114`): Primary text

### Neutral

- **Cool Gray** (`#686b82`): Primary neutral, borders at 24% opacity
- **Silver Blue** (`#9497a9`): Secondary text, muted elements
- **White** (`#ffffff`): Primary surface
- **Border Gray** (`#dedee5`): Divider borders

### Semantic

- **Green** (`#149e61`): Success/positive at 16% opacity for badges
