## Personality

- Calm
- Clear

## Avoid

## Visual language

- **Typography**: Swiss-inspired typography, using Geist Sans for display/body and Geist Mono for code.

- **Layout**: Strong whitespace, structured forms, clean grids.
- **Interaction**: Functional motion, subtle elevation, accessible focus rings (purple).
