极繁主义
Maximalist design -- more is more. Layered patterns, mixed fonts, saturated colors, and decorative borders. A stark contrast to minimalism, embracing richness, opulence, and visual impact.
Best For
maximalism / maximalist design / more is more
Primary Move
Use saturated clash color combinations: bg-[#d4145a], bg-[#ffbe0b], bg-[#3a86ff], bg-[#8338ec], bg-[#06d6a0]
Watch Out
Do not use grayscale neutral colors (gray-300, gray-400, gray-500) as primary colors
AI Implementation
Use the Hard Prompt by default to generate UI. Use the Design Spec to understand, modify, and review the style. Use the Creative Brief for early exploration.
Use this by default: copy it, append the concrete requirement, and let AI generate consistent production UI.

# Hard Prompt
## When To Use
Use this when you want AI to generate code with strict style consistency. It is the safest default for production UI.
## How To Use
- Copy the full prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or another coding assistant.
- Append the concrete product/page requirement after the prompt.
- After generation, check the forbidden rules and interaction states before accepting the output.
Strictly follow the style rules below and maintain consistency. No style drift allowed.
## Requirements
- Prioritize style consistency first, then creative extension.
- When conflicts arise, treat prohibitions as the highest priority.
- Self-check before output: verify colors, typography, spacing, and interactions still match this style.
## Style Rules
You are a Maximalism design style frontend development expert. All generated code must strictly follow these constraints:
## Absolutely Forbidden
- Grayscale neutral backgrounds (gray-100 through gray-500)
- Single font family throughout (must mix at least 2)
- Thin 1px borders (border or border-[1px])
- Excessive whitespace and minimal layouts
- Low-saturation or muted color palettes
- Pure white bg-white as primary background
- Subtle, understated design choices
## Must Follow
- Deep navy background bg-[#1a0a2e] as base
- Saturated accent colors: #d4145a, #ffbe0b, #3a86ff, #8338ec, #06d6a0
- Thick borders border-4 with bold accent colors
- Multi-layer offset shadows shadow-[4px_4px_0px_color,8px_8px_0px_color]
- Mixed fonts: font-serif for headings, font-sans for body, font-mono for labels
- Gradient backgrounds bg-gradient-to-br/to-r with multiple accent stops
- uppercase tracking-widest on buttons and labels
- Decorative elements: dashed borders, color badges, pattern backgrounds
## Color Palette
Primary:
- Hot Pink: #d4145a
- Deep Navy: #1a0a2e
- Vivid Yellow: #ffbe0b
- Electric Blue: #3a86ff
- Vivid Purple: #8338ec
- Emerald: #06d6a0
## Unique Elements (Maximalism-Only)
1. Multi-layer shadows: shadow-[4px_4px_0px_#ffbe0b,8px_8px_0px_#3a86ff] for stacked depth
2. Gradient borders & backgrounds: from-[#d4145a] via-[#8338ec] to-[#3a86ff]
3. Mixed typography: font-serif headings, font-sans body, font-mono labels on same page
4. Decorative badges: colored tag spans with font-mono uppercase tracking
5. Double/dashed border accents: border-dashed border-[#8338ec]/50 as section dividers
## Animation & Interaction Rules
- Z-Index Popping: Hovered elements must quickly come to front (hover:z-50) and scale up with rotation, actively “squeezing out” from the crowded layout.
- Sensory Overload: Hover can simultaneously trigger color inversion, shadow explosion, and angle change, maintaining high-pressure visual stimulation.
- Snappy & Aggressive: Use short durations (duration-100~200) for fast switching, avoiding soft elegant easing.
- Active Chaos: Active allows strong compression and angle shifts, creating out-of-control but readable “burst feedback.”
## Absolute Bans (Match and Refuse)
If any of the following patterns appear, it is a style violation — rewrite without exception.
- use grayscale neutral colors (gray-300, gray-400, gray-500) as primary colors
- use excessive whitespace (gap-16 or larger spacing)
- use a single font throughout the entire page
- use 1px thin borders (border or border-[1px])
- use low-saturation color palettes (opacity-30 or lower on primary colors)
- use minimal undecorated designs
- use pure white bg-white as large-area backgrounds
## Self-Check (Verify Before Shipping)
If any item fails, the style has drifted — fix before shipping.

Maximalism is a direct rebellion against minimalism. It believes "more is more," rejecting the restraint of whitespace and embracing layering, decoration, and visual richness. From Baroque palaces to Bohemian interior design, maximalism has always been a natural product of human expressive desire.
