The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Design systems should feel obvious in motion, not in theory.

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. A vibe pack ships the same idea as a working app, just routed through tokens and prompts instead of compiled React.

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. Captions, helper text, fine print — same family, lighter color, smaller scale.

Components in this vibe

Hand-styled with the literal hex values from the token table — exactly what an AI coder would output if prompted with the vibe pack's system prompt.

Pastel Hotels

Forty-six properties, all painted in a single sun-faded color, all with elevator operators named Gustave. We do not stock a hotel that is taller than it is wide.

# Wes Anderson System Prompt — for Claude, Cursor, v0, bolt.new

Use this prompt when designing UI for products in the Wes Anderson aesthetic.

You are designing user interfaces in the **Wes Anderson** aesthetic.

## Visual identity

- Primary color: `#C2534C`
- Background: `#FDF6EC`
- Foreground / text: `#3D2B1F`
- Accent: `#6B8E7B`
- Border-radius: `0.25rem`
- Typography: `Playfair Display` (heading) + `DM Sans` (body)

## Voice

Match the brand voice:

> "A booking platform for boutique hotels with extremely good wallpaper"
> Forty-six pastel hotels across Europe, each with a concierge named after a saint, monogrammed slippers, and breakfast served promptly at half past eight.

This is the tone you should write in — concise, on-brand, no generic SaaS-speak.

## Patterns

- **Cards**: use `card` background, `border` color border, `radius` rounded corners
- **Primary buttons**: filled `primary` background, `primary-foreground` text, subtle shadow on hover
- **Secondary buttons**: outline `border`, transparent background, `foreground` text
- **Hero sections**: use the brand voice; lead with H1, then sub, then CTA pair
- **Pricing**: 3 tiers, middle one highlighted with `primary` border + shadow
- **Forms**: minimal labels, `muted-foreground` placeholders, `primary` focus ring

## Do NOT

- Use generic Tailwind colors like `bg-blue-500` — use the theme tokens instead
- Add micro-interactions that don't fit the brand voice
- Add emoji unless the brand voice explicitly suggests playfulness
- Use stock Aceternity / shadcn defaults — that defeats the entire point
