Color Usage Guide
Typography
Nunito is the sole typeface across all touchpoints. Five weights are active — each with a specific role. Never mix typefaces.
Type Scale
TEAL ACCENT COLOUR RULE
Always use Nolen Teal #00CCAA for inline teal accents
Word and phrase highlights inside H1, H2, section labels, and CTA links must always use #00CCAA (Nolen Teal). Never use Deep Teal #009980 for typographic accents — Deep Teal is reserved exclusively for hover and active states on interactive elements.
✓ DO
H2 accent: color: var(--teal) → #00CCAA
Section label: color: #00CCAA
CTA link: color: var(--teal)
H1 teal line: color: #00CCAA
✕ DON'T
H2 accent: color: var(--teal-deep) → #009980
Section label: color: #009980
Deep Teal is for: hover states, icon backgrounds, active buttons only
Spacing & Radius
4px base grid. Border radius uses 12px (--radius) as the primary token — confirmed over the brand-spec 8px as the better visual choice.

Background rule: Pure White (#FFF) as page background + colored cards for visual warmth and variety. For multi-card layouts (3–6 cards), apply color rotation to avoid monotony. Reference: Langdock's "All-in-One" section.

Chatbot UI
The signed-off reference build for the Nolen conversation interface. This is the single source of truth — documented sections 01–04: Dawn user-message bubble, Cream White canvas (#F5F0E8), progress indicator, and the full-page app mockup. The header sits on Warm Charcoal with the logo top-left; teal is reserved for the online indicator and real CTAs only — never the user-message bubble.
Badges & Tags
Pill-shaped (border-radius: 999px). Nunito SemiBold 600, 12–13px. Used for categories, status indicators, and feature callouts. Violet at 15–20%, Coral at ~5%.
Tone of Voice
Nolen speaks like a senior advisor — beside you, not above you. Direct without being blunt. Confident without being loud. Swiss precision meets Anglo-Saxon pragmatism.

ArrogantBluntCasualCondescendingServilePedanticWriting Guidelines
- Lead with the benefit, not the feature.
- Use active voice. "Nolen delivers reports" — not "Reports are delivered by Nolen."
- Avoid superlatives unless backed by data.
- One idea per sentence. Short paragraphs.
- Address the reader as "you" / "your team."
- Technical accuracy over marketing fluff — always.
Copy Examples
Do / Don't
Core rules for consistent brand application across all touchpoints.
Use Pure White (#FFF) as page background
Use Cream White as full-page background — reserve it for cards

Use weight 900 anywhere — it has been removed from the type system
Use Nolen Violet at 15–20% of accents
Use Violet as the primary or dominant color
Use Signal Coral (~5%) for alerts/notifications only
Use Coral for decorative purposes or large surfaces
Use Warm Charcoal (#2B2B38) for header & footer BG
Use Dark Grey (#1E1E2A) for body text — it's the darkest background
Use the wordmark in charcoal or white only
Recolor, stretch, rotate, or add effects to the logo
Use 12px radius for cards, buttons, and panels
Mix radius values inconsistently across similar components
Use 16px (1rem) for nav link font size
Use 14px for nav links — confirmed spec is 16px
