# Design System Inspiration of Revolut

## 1. Visual Theme & Atmosphere

Revolut's website is fintech confidence distilled into pixels — a design system
that communicates "your money is in capable hands" through massive typography,
generous whitespace, and a disciplined neutral palette. The visual language is
built on Aeonik Pro, a geometric grotesque that creates billboard-scale
headlines at 136px with weight 500 and aggressive negative tracking (-2.72px).
This isn't subtle branding; it's fintech at stadium scale.

The color system is built on a comprehensive `--rui-*` (Revolut UI) token
architecture with semantic naming for every state: danger (`#e23b4a`), warning
(`#ec7e00`), teal (`#00a87e`), blue (`#494fdf`), deep-pink (`#e61e49`), and
more. But the marketing surface itself is remarkably restrained — near-black
(`#191c1f`) and pure white (`#ffffff`) dominate, with the colorful semantic
tokens reserved for the product interface, not the marketing page.

What distinguishes Revolut is its pill-everything button system. Every button
uses 9999px radius — primary dark (`#191c1f`), secondary light (`#f4f4f4`),
outlined (`transparent + 2px solid`), and ghost on dark
(`rgba(244,244,244,0.1) + 2px solid`). The padding is generous (14px 32px–34px),
creating large, confident touch targets. Combined with Inter for body text at
various weights and positive letter-spacing (0.16px–0.24px), the result is a
design that feels both premium and accessible — banking for the modern era.

**Key Characteristics:**

- Aeonik Pro display at 136px weight 500 — billboard-scale fintech headlines
- Near-black (`#191c1f`) + white binary with comprehensive `--rui-*` semantic
  tokens
- Universal pill buttons (9999px radius) with generous padding (14px 32px)
- Inter for body text with positive letter-spacing (0.16px–0.24px)
- Rich semantic color system: blue, teal, pink, yellow, green, brown, danger,
  warning
- Zero shadows detected — depth through color contrast only
- Tight display line-heights (1.00) with relaxed body (1.50–1.56)

## 3. Typography Rules

### Font Families

- **Display**: `Aeonik Pro` — geometric grotesque, no detected fallbacks
- **Body / UI**: `Inter` — standard system sans
- **Fallback**: `Arial` for specific button contexts

### Hierarchy

| Role            | Font       | Size            | Weight | Line Height  | Letter Spacing | Notes               |
| --------------- | ---------- | --------------- | ------ | ------------ | -------------- | ------------------- |
| Display Mega    | Aeonik Pro | 136px (8.50rem) | 500    | 1.00 (tight) | -2.72px        | Stadium-scale hero  |
| Display Hero    | Aeonik Pro | 80px (5.00rem)  | 500    | 1.00 (tight) | -0.8px         | Primary hero        |
| Section Heading | Aeonik Pro | 48px (3.00rem)  | 500    | 1.21 (tight) | -0.48px        | Feature sections    |
| Sub-heading     | Aeonik Pro | 40px (2.50rem)  | 500    | 1.20 (tight) | -0.4px         | Sub-sections        |
| Card Title      | Aeonik Pro | 32px (2.00rem)  | 500    | 1.19 (tight) | -0.32px        | Card headings       |
| Feature Title   | Aeonik Pro | 24px (1.50rem)  | 400    | 1.33         | normal         | Light headings      |
| Nav / UI        | Aeonik Pro | 20px (1.25rem)  | 500    | 1.40         | normal         | Navigation, buttons |
| Body Large      | Inter      | 18px (1.13rem)  | 400    | 1.56         | -0.09px        | Introductions       |
| Body            | Inter      | 16px (1.00rem)  | 400    | 1.50         | 0.24px         | Standard reading    |
| Body Semibold   | Inter      | 16px (1.00rem)  | 600    | 1.50         | 0.16px         | Emphasized body     |
| Body Bold Link  | Inter      | 16px (1.00rem)  | 700    | 1.50         | 0.24px         | Bold links          |

### Principles

- **Weight 500 as display default**: Aeonik Pro uses medium (500) for ALL
  headings — no bold. This creates authority through size and tracking, not
  weight.
- **Billboard tracking**: -2.72px at 136px is extremely compressed — text
  designed to be read at a glance, like airport signage.
- **Positive tracking on body**: Inter uses +0.16px to +0.24px, creating airy,
  well-spaced reading text that contrasts with the compressed headings.

## 4. Component Stylings

### Buttons

**Primary Dark Pill**

- Background: `#191c1f`
- Text: `#ffffff`
- Padding: 14px 32px
- Radius: 9999px (full pill)
- Hover: opacity 0.85
- Focus: `0 0 0 0.125rem` ring

**Secondary Light Pill**

- Background: `#f4f4f4`
- Text: `#000000`
- Padding: 14px 34px
- Radius: 9999px
- Hover: opacity 0.85

**Outlined Pill**

- Background: transparent
- Text: `#191c1f`
- Border: `2px solid #191c1f`
- Padding: 14px 32px
- Radius: 9999px

**Ghost on Dark**

- Background: `rgba(244, 244, 244, 0.1)`
- Text: `#f4f4f4`
- Border: `2px solid #f4f4f4`
- Padding: 14px 32px
- Radius: 9999px

### Cards & Containers

- Radius: 12px (small), 20px (cards)
- No shadows — flat surfaces with color contrast
- Dark and light section alternation

### Navigation

- Aeonik Pro 20px weight 500
- Clean header, hamburger toggle at 12px radius
- Pill CTAs right-aligned

## 5. Layout Principles

### Spacing System

- Base unit: 8px
- Scale: 4px, 6px, 8px, 14px, 16px, 20px, 24px, 32px, 40px, 48px, 80px, 88px,
  120px
- Large section spacing: 80px–120px

### Border Radius Scale

- Standard (12px): Navigation, small buttons
- Card (20px): Feature cards
- Pill (9999px): All buttons

## 6. Depth & Elevation

| Level          | Treatment             | Use                                    |
| -------------- | --------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Flat (Level 0) | No shadow             | Everything — Revolut uses zero shadows |
| Focus          | `0 0 0 0.125rem` ring | Accessibility focus                    |

**Shadow Philosophy**: Revolut uses ZERO shadows. Depth comes entirely from the
dark/light section contrast and the generous whitespace between elements.

## 7. Do's and Don'ts

### Do

- Use Aeonik Pro weight 500 for all display headings
- Apply 9999px radius to all buttons — pill shape is universal
- Use generous button padding (14px 32px)
- Keep the palette to near-black + white for marketing surfaces
- Apply positive letter-spacing on Inter body text

### Don't

- Don't use shadows — Revolut is flat by design
- Don't use bold (700) for Aeonik Pro headings — 500 is the weight
- Don't use small buttons — the generous padding is intentional
- Don't apply semantic colors to marketing surfaces — they're for the product

## 8. Responsive Behavior

### Breakpoints

| Name         | Width       | Key Changes            |
| ------------ | ----------- | ---------------------- |
| Mobile Small | <400px      | Compact, single column |
| Mobile       | 400–720px   | Standard mobile        |
| Tablet       | 720–1024px  | 2-column layouts       |
| Desktop      | 1024–1280px | Standard desktop       |
| Large        | 1280–1920px | Full layout            |

## 9. Agent Prompt Guide

### Quick Color Reference

- Dark: Revolut Dark (`#191c1f`)
- Light: White (`#ffffff`)
- Surface: Light (`#f4f4f4`)
- Blue: Revolut Blue (`#494fdf`)
- Danger: Red (`#e23b4a`)
- Success: Teal (`#00a87e`)

### Example Component Prompts

- "Create a hero: white background. Headline at 136px Aeonik Pro weight 500,
  line-height 1.00, letter-spacing -2.72px, #191c1f text. Dark pill CTA
  (#191c1f, 9999px, 14px 32px). Outlined pill secondary (transparent, 2px solid
  #191c1f)."
- "Build a pill button: #191c1f background, white text, 9999px radius, 14px 32px
  padding, 20px Aeonik Pro weight 500. Hover: opacity 0.85."

### Iteration Guide

1. Aeonik Pro 500 for headings — never bold
2. All buttons are pills (9999px) with generous padding
3. Zero shadows — flat is the Revolut identity
4. Near-black + white for marketing, semantic colors for product
