description: >
  A clean, playful product canvas: white base (#FFFFFF) with black ink, built on
  a fully-documented token system. Type is figmaSans (a variable grotesque, run
  regular-to-medium with tight tracking) for headlines and figmaMono for small
  UPPERCASE wide-tracked eyebrows. The brand is monochrome black/white for
  structure, with a single electric Figma purple (#5856FF) reserved for the
  in-product primary action, teal quote glyphs, and the multicolor Figma logo.
  Sections alternate white / pale-green / light-gray / black footer. Geometry is
  rounded (a 2-28px radius scale + full pills) and elevation is whisper-soft.

Figma

figma-design — version alpha

Surfaces studied via Playwright (figma.com home): computed styles + a fully-documented --fig-* token system (typography sizes, spacing, radius scale, elevation, and theme color tokens authored as color-mix(... oklch)). Very high-confidence extraction.

Overview

Figma's canvas is clean and playful: a white base ({colors.surface} #FFFFFF) with black ink. Type is figmaSans — a variable grotesque run regular-to-medium (400–540) with tight negative tracking — for headlines, paired with figmaMono for small UPPERCASE, wide-tracked eyebrows (gray #697485). Structurally the brand is monochrome black/white: actions are black pill buttons with white outline secondaries. The one electric accent is Figma purple {colors.figma-purple} (#5856FF), reserved for the in-product primary action (the "Get started" inside the hero card) — plus teal quote glyphs and the famous multicolor 5-dot logo. Sections alternate backgrounds — white, pale green, light gray, and a black footer — giving rhythm. Geometry is rounded via a documented 2→28px radius scale + full pills, and elevation is a whisper-soft two-tier ladder. The signature touch is the hero word-cycle (Prompt → Design → Draw → Build → …) and bright color template tiles.

Colors

  • Black — {colors.primary} #000. Ink and the marketing primary action (the "Get started for free" pill; hover lightens via color-mix to ~85%).
  • Figma purple — {colors.figma-purple} #5856FF. The electric brand accent, used for the in-product primary action shown inside the hero card mock. Discipline: marketing CTAs stay black; purple signals "the app".
  • Ink & muted. Black text; figmaMono eyebrow gray {colors.on-surface-muted} #697485; general muted text is black at ~54% ({colors.fg-muted}).
  • Alternating surfaces. White default; pale green {colors.surface-mint} (~#eef9e0) for the "Bring everyone together" band; light gray {colors.surface-gray} for "Ship products"; black {colors.surface-inverse} for dark sections and the footer.
  • Fills & hairlines. Inputs/badges sit on ~8% black; borders are ~16% black (hover ~40%) — all authored with color-mix(... oklch).
  • Accent illustration. Teal {colors.teal} (~#2bd9d9) quote-marks; bright template-tile colors (yellow/blue/green/violet); the 5-dot Figma logo (red-orange, green, purple, blue). Error red #972121.

Typography

  • figmaSans (variable) — display & body. Closest OSS substitute: Inter (or Geist). Run at 400–540 with tight tracking (display uses ~-0.04rem). The variable font exposes width and weight axes (wght 400/600/700, wdth 96–100).
  • figmaMono — UPPERCASE eyebrows/labels with wide tracking (+0.04em). OSS sub: Geist Mono.

Layout

A documented grid: 12 columns, 1.5rem margins, 1rem gutters, 95rem (~1520px) max content, 4rem section block padding, on a 4px spacing base (scale 4→120). The page is a stack of alternating-background sections, each typically a two-up (text + product/illustration) or 2-column feature grid (design systems, Buzz, Dev Mode). Other primitives: the hero word-cycle card, a grayscale trust-logo strip, a bright template-tile carousel (circular arrow nav), and an "Explore what people are making" thumbnail grid. The footer is a dense multi-column link directory on black.

Elevation & Depth

A whisper-soft two-tier ladder: {elevation.1} (0 4px 32px rgba(0,0,0,0.10)) for resting cards and {elevation.2} (0 24px 70px …) for floating/hover. Both are low-opacity, large-blur — gentle. Depth otherwise comes from the alternating section colors and clean product mockups; no gradients on surfaces.

Shapes

A full radius scale: 2 / 4 / 8 / 12 / 16 / 24 / 28px + full pills. Buttons and the hero card use full pills / large radii; cards and tiles use 12–24px; badges use 4px. The result is friendly and modern, matching figmaSans's soft grotesque.

Components

  • Primary button {components.button-primary} — black full-pill, white label ("Get started for free").
  • Secondary button {components.button-secondary} — transparent pill with a ~16% black border ("Contact sales").
  • Product primary {components.button-product-primary}purple #5856FF, 12px radius, the "Get started" inside the hero card mock.
  • Underline link {components.link-underline} — "Explore design systems", "Explore Figma Make".
  • Input {components.input} — ~8% black fill, 8px radius, muted placeholder.
  • Badge {components.badge} — "BETA" / "NEW" tags, 4px radius, ~8% black fill.
  • Template tile {components.template-tile} — a solid bright color block (yellow/blue/green/violet) with a rounded preview thumbnail.

Motion

Playful but tasteful: the hero word-cycle (Prompt/Design/Draw/Build/Publish/Promote/Jam/Present) with a play/pause control, carousels with circular arrow buttons, and soft fades. No heavy parallax.

Iconography

Thin outline monoline icons, ink-inherited. The brand mark is the multicolor 5-dot Figma logo (red-orange, green, purple, blue). Quote glyphs render in teal. Social icons sit in dark circles in the footer. Sizes 16/20/24px.

Do's and Don'ts

  • Do keep marketing CTAs black pills; reserve purple #5856FF for the in-product action.
  • Do set headlines in figmaSans (400–540) with tight tracking; eyebrows in figmaMono UPPERCASE with wide tracking.
  • Do alternate section backgrounds (white / pale-green / light-gray / black).
  • Do use the documented radius scale and the soft two-tier elevation.
  • Do use bright color blocks for template tiles and teal for quote glyphs.
  • Don't turn marketing buttons purple (purple = the product).
  • Don't use heavy/black headline weights — stay regular-to-medium.
  • Don't add hard shadows; elevation is large-blur and low-opacity.

Known Gaps

  • Theme colors are authored as color-mix(... oklch); pale-green, light-gray, teal and the logo hues are nearest-hex approximations.
  • Hero display scales responsively above the 44px (size-display) base.
