# Designing Frontend
## Workflow
1. **Conceptualize**
- Identify purpose and user context
- Choose a bold aesthetic direction (brutally minimal, maximalist, retro-futuristic, organic, luxury, brutalist, etc.)
- Define the one unforgettable element
- Note technical constraints (framework, performance, accessibility)
2. **Implement**
- Write production-grade code (HTML/CSS/JS, React, Vue, etc.)
- Apply aesthetic guidelines below
3. **Verify**
- Check visual hierarchy and cohesion
- Test interactions and animations
- Validate accessibility requirements
- Confirm no generic patterns emerged
4. **Iterate**
- Refine details based on verification
- Enhance distinctiveness where needed
## Aesthetic Guidelines
**Typography**
- Use distinctive, characterful fonts (avoid Inter, Roboto, Arial, system fonts)
- Pair expressive display fonts with refined body fonts
**Color & Theme**
- Build cohesive palettes with CSS variables
- Use dominant colors with sharp accents, not evenly-distributed schemes
- Avoid clichéd combinations (purple gradients on white)
**Motion**
- Create high-impact moments with orchestrated page loads and staggered reveals
- Use CSS animations for HTML; Motion library for React
- Add surprising hover states and scroll-triggered effects
**Spatial Composition**
- Break from grid conventions: asymmetry, overlap, diagonal flow
- Use generous negative space OR intentional density
**Backgrounds & Visual Effects**
- Layer gradient meshes, noise textures, geometric patterns
- Apply contextual effects: layered transparencies, dramatic shadows, decorative borders
- Add atmosphere through depth and texture
## Implementation Principles
- **Match complexity to vision**: Maximalist designs require elaborate code; minimalist designs demand precision in spacing and typography
- **Vary every design**: Different fonts, themes, aesthetics for each project
- **Never converge**: Avoid repeated choices (Space Grotesk, common layouts)
- **Context-specific**: Design should feel genuinely crafted for its purpose
