Moonlit Zinc Black-Diary & Carmine Review Sheet
/moonlitZincBlackdiaryCarmineReviewSheet
Design philosophy: a cooler moonlit sheet aesthetic using soft white backgrounds, pale zinc-grey content bands, charcoal-plum typography, silver hairlines, golden review stars, and a muted carmine accent reserved for primary actions and one editorial note. Core beliefs: the site should feel maintained by a tasteful local owner with a book designer’s eye, not generated from a SaaS kit. Strict rules: slim light navbar, rectangular photographic hero, hero heading no larger than 3xl, immediate star proof, centered social-proof paragraph, alternating image/text panels, ruled document-like menu, and practical address/opening rows. Typography philosophy: combine Fanwood Text, Linden Hill, or Libre Caslon Text headings with Charter, Spectral, or Crimson Pro body; keep line-height generous and ink slightly softened. Spacing: tidy 2014 gutters, baseline-led vertical rhythm, repeatable modules. Motion: opacity reveals, hover darkening, mild image lift. Imagery: rainlit frontage, black diary corners, silverware, folded menus. Refuses decorative frames, stickers, beige washes, generic wine-red. Common mistakes: low-contrast greys, luxury emptiness, ornate flourishes.
