# Visual style: dark-tech

Dark canvas, luminous accents, geometric precision. For tech, AI, dev tools, data products, launches.

---

## 1. Shape & decoration

- Shape language: crisp geometry; thin glowing rules; hexagon / circuit / grid motifs used sparingly. Slight rounding (`rx` 4-8) or sharp.
- Decoration: glow accents, fine grid backgrounds, monospace labels, node / connector lines. Restrained — precision over clutter.
- Whitespace: dark negative space reads as depth; let elements float on it.

## 2. Typography character

- Clean sans for body; monospace for labels / figures / code cues. Wide tracking on small-caps labels.
- High-contrast hierarchy against the dark field.

> Families are chosen at confirmation `g`; this style asks for a clean sans + monospace pairing.

## 3. Using the deck's colors

- Dark background; one or two luminous accents carry focus (glowing figures, active nodes); everything else low-key.
- The accent does the work of attention — few points, high contrast.

> HEX values come from confirmation `e`; this style only governs the dark-field, luminous-accent discipline — it names no colors.

## 4. Texture / elevation

- Depth via glow and layering on dark, not drop shadows. Outer glow / light strokes mark elevation; gradients stay same-hue and subtle. (Dark-theme legibility — prefer light stroke / outer glow over black shadow: [`shared-standards.md §6`](../shared-standards.md).)

## 5. Paired image-rendering
