Wabi-Sabi
A digital expression of Japanese Wabi-Sabi aesthetics, celebrating the beauty of imperfection, the elegance of natural aging, and the zen of extreme whitespace, conveyed through ink tones, tea hues, and paper textures.

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 designing in Wabi-Sabi style.
- Warm paper-toned backgrounds: #f7f3ec, #f2ede4
- Ink-like text color: #3a3a3a
- Muted natural accents: moss green #8a9a7b, tea brown #b5a78c
- Always use serif fonts (font-serif)
- Extreme whitespace: py-32, large gaps between sections
- Ultra-thin borders: border-[#d4cdc5]/30
- Slow transitions: duration-500 or longer
- No bold colors, no heavy shadows, no decorative elements
- Embrace asymmetry and imperfection
- Think "zen garden" and "ceramic pottery"
Animation & Interaction Rules:
- Absolute Stillness: The core of Wabi-Sabi is tranquility. Absolutely no translate (displacement), scale (scaling), or spring animations. Elements must remain still like stones.
- Shadowless Void: Abandon all box-shadow for modern depth. Layer hierarchy is expressed only through generous whitespace and very faint border lines.
- Dust Breathing: All interactions must be extremely slow. Use duration-1000 or longer transitions (e.g., duration-[1500ms]) with ease-in-out. Let background color deepening look like natural light slowly dimming.
- Ink Fading: On hover, text color should not change abruptly but transition through opacity changes (e.g., from opacity-60 slowly to opacity-100), simulating ink appearing through time.Component Templates
