Porcelain Archive Pages & Cranberry-Black Active Rules

/porcelainArchivePagesCranberryblackActiveRules

Design philosophy: an archival, document-first landing page aesthetic using porcelain-white pages, pale smoke-grey panels, charcoal-plum text, golden yellow stars, and cranberry-black accents only for CTAs, active nav rules, and tiny dividers. Core beliefs: restraint, typographic consistency, strong image crops, and obvious editability matter more than decoration. Strict rules: sticky light navbar, full-width W3.css sections, no warm beige, no coloured section floods, no cards with shadows, no badges, icons, or avatars. Typography philosophy: Quattrocentro Sans everywhere; modest hero below 3xl, bold 20px intro paragraph under hero, 17px body with generous leading, FAQ headings slightly heavier. Spacing philosophy: old-builder cadence, clear separators, image-heavy blocks, practical gutters. Motion: nearly static with quiet hover darkening. Imagery: white crockery, black coats, menu paper, soft reflections. Common mistakes: red overload, fake vintage textures, script fonts, overly polished luxury spacing.
